Things You Should Know

Build a long, high-value train route and pick up several smaller ticket routes that connect or are part of the longer one. Spend a few rounds collecting nothing but train cards. Then, when you have a wide variety collected, you can claim whole routes at a time.

Multiple Routes

The same player cannot claim more than one Track of these Routes during the game. All of the Tracks on the two Triple Routes are in play with any number of players. In 2-player games, only one Track of the Double Routes joining two locations can be claimed.

Dylan. Map Collection Volume 7 features the largest maps yet in the Ticket to Ride series, an oversized, double-sided board featuring Japan on one side and Italy on the other.

The Longest Continuous Path in Ticket to Ride is awarded to the player with the longest unbroken chain of cars in their colour on the board at the end of the game. Loops can be counted and the route can pass through the same city multiple times, but no individual train car can be counted twice.

The last round is triggered as soon as any player has 2 or fewer train cars left. Each player (including the player who triggered the game end) gets one final turn; then, scoring begins. Each player then gains (or loses) points according to how many Destination Tickets they completed (or failed to complete).

What happens when you reach 100 in Ticket to Ride? ›

A 10-point destination will swing your score 20 points because you lose the points if you don't win them. If you have 100 points otherwise, your score is 110 if you complete the route, and 90 if you don't.

Note: Unlike most Ticket To Ride games there is no restriction on the number of Locomotive cards you may draw per turn.

You must use the official board map in order to play the game. Ticket to Ride can be played with 2-5 people.

Each city can only have one station, and at the end of the game, before tickets are scored, the station must be assigned to one of the routes (of another player) radiating from that city. You do this by "sitting" the station on that route. Players can play a maximum of 3 stations during the game.

Another option to get a sixth set of player pieces is Ticket to Ride Map Collection 6: France & Old West . It comes with a white set as the Old West side is designed for up 6 players (individual not teams).
