Manufacturer: Days Of Wonder
October 2, 1900 – 28 years to the day that noted London eccentric, Phileas Fogg accepted and then won a £20,000 bet that he could travel around the world in 80 days. Now at the dawn of the century, it is time for a new impossible journey.
Some old friends have gathered to celebrate Fogg’s impetuous and lucrative gamble – and to propose a new wager of their own. The stakes: $1 Million in a winner-takes-all competition. The objective: to see which of them can travel by rail to the most cities in North America – in just 7 days.
Ticket to Ride is a cross-country train adventure. Players collect cards that enable them to claim railway routes connecting cities throughout North America. The longer the routes, the more points they earn. Additional points come to those who can fulfill their Destination Tickets by connecting two distant cities, and to the player who builds the longest continuous railway. So climb aboard for some railroading fun and adventure!
First published in 2004, Ticket to Ride has won multiple international awards since its release. Discover this classic in a special 15th Anniversary edition that includes 5 exclusive sets of clear plastic trains and a 4-page retrospective booklet featuring the history and creation of the game.
