Days of Wonder | Ticket to Ride France Board Game EXPANSION | Ages 8+ | For 2 to 5 players | Average Playtime 30-60 Minutes

We love ticket to ride but beware that this is the "expansion" game. You must have the original game to have all the pieces to play. If you are a fan of the original two versions of the game (Europe / USA), then an expansion game adds different destinations and rules. Lots of fun.

If you have played other ticket to rides and wanted a variant that changed your play styles both sides of this board will interest you.

Great add on for a great game - ticket to ride with the added maps etc never get tiring to play

another brilliant game from Days of Wonder with a double sided board so two games in one

Good addition with the added rules making it a lot more tactical than the original. Not for everyone, but I enjoy the extra challenge.

An interesting take on a fabulous game, ticket to ride gives you a different game every game!

Great variation on the Ticket to Ride theme. Interesting mechanic increases longevity.

A great game as described

Les 2 côtés du jeux (Old West & France) se jouent de façon très différente, donc c'est vrai chouette! Attention: il vous faut aussi avoir un des jeux de base (Amérique du Nord, Europe ou Allemagne) pour pouvoir jouer à celui-ci, car les cartes wagons et les wagons n'y sont pas.

*Old West -- absolutely 5 stars, instantly one of our favorite TTR maps.* Old West is a little different from typical TTR, in a couple of ways. It allows 6 individuals to play; you can't play unconnected trains; and you can get points from trains played by other players. You claim a "city center" at the beginning of the game, and you play from there. Once you've built your first route, you can split off in whatever direction you like... but any route you claim has to be connected to a previous route. This makes reaching your destination cities a bit stressful, especially if one of your opponents seems to be heading to the same area on the map. The "city centers" are not only your starting point, they also signify "ownership" of a city. If anyone plays a route into that city, *you* get the points. Billy played a 4-space route into your city center? That's 7 points for you, and zero points for Billy. We really like this map because it forces interaction between players, and it adds quite a bit of drama to the game, and of course because it can be played with 6 people (the only map that allows for 6 individual players). *France -- a solid addition to TTR, and definitely interesting... but the "building" phase gets old.* France adds a brand-new element to TTR: track-building. Most of the routes on the board have no color. The color is assigned by the players. Every time you draw train cards, you have to "build" track somewhere on the board. You choose the color and the length, from a limited selection of track pieces. There's only one 4-space and 5-space track piece for each color, but multiple 2-space and 3-space track pieces. This track-building element is exciting at first, and it can add some player interaction because anyone can play on track, once it's built. If you build a 3-space orange route, and your opponent has 3 orange train cards... they can claim that route before you do. However, we found that as the game gets down to about 10 trains left, the track-building gets pretty old. At that point, you really just want to grab the train cards you need to complete your trips before someone ends the game. Being forced to build track when you don't want to is a bit annoying. (Also, organizing the track pieces adds time to the game setup). We still enjoy France, but we've run into "track-building fatigue" every time we play. Because of that, it doesn't get played too often. *** Overall, this is a 5-star expansion, despite our issues with France's track-building. Old West is an amazing addition to any Ticket to Ride library. Keep in mind this is an expansion and you will need your own train cards and train pieces, from TTR USA or TTR Europe.

This expansion adds two new mechanics to the game: Pennsylvania allows players to collect shares in a railroad company and the UK map requires that a player upgrade their train's technology before travelling more than 3 tracks and propellors before using ferries. If you're a ticket to ride fan, this expansion is a must have.

Super jeu, qualité impeccable et très bon prix

Juego muy entretenido. Hace falta tener el aventureros de europa o estados unidos para poder jugar, ya que no trae todas las cartas y fichas.
