Asmodee Ticket to Ride Berlin Board Game - Train Route-Building Strategy Game, Fun Family Game for Kids & Adults, Ages 8+, 2-4 Players, 10-15 Minute PlaytimeThe Forest Stewardship Council

London is much smaller in size than the other Ticket to Ride Games and has capacity for only 4 people to play. With that said, it is still fun. Also quick to play with 2 people.Another TTR game with new strategies.

Fun, quick version of the game. Easy to learn (hint people afraid of the original game, try this one) I wish there was a larger San Francisco version, there are many more landmarks that could be added. But then it would be more expensive and less people would buy it. I love San Francisco, and I love ticket to ride. Note: this should be sold at every tourist shop in SF.

My family loves playing Ticket to Ride. Ticket to Ride Europe is our favorite edition. We were recently visiting London with our daughters. We found this and thought it would be the perfect Christmas gift to remind them of our time there. We had so much fun playing this. It has various items on the map through downtown London that we remembered visiting. It just means so much more when you've been there in person!The game is small and lightweight and easy to pack and travel with. Everything is included that is needed in the game, so it is not an expansion pack but a standalone game. Since it's smaller, the gameplay is much faster than the normal TTR game. This is great if you only have time for a quick game, or for a good transition game on game night between longer strategy games!

Fun game. Easy to understand and play.

Smaller than the original. But better for quicker games. Fun to play. Worth the price. Terrible delivery: Item was ordered on Tuesday (need by Sunday) with a delivery date by Friday, after it didn't show up on Friday Amazon pushed the delivery back to Sunday, it finally arrived on Monday. When I checked the UPS tracking a label was made for it on Tuesday but didn't show info on it (meaning the company didn't submit it to UPS) until Thursday.

Few of us have come this far in our gaming adventures without crossing paths with at least one of the Ticket to Ride games. For many of us it is among the first games we play. In my case, Ticket to Ride: Europe was my first ‘real’ board game and I still have it in my collection. Ticket to Ride: New York is a newer edition and offers a smaller/quicker gaming option. Let’s see how it holds up.GameplayUnsurprisingly, Ticket to Ride: New York plays quite similarly to the other games in the series. While instead of train routes you are connecting cab routes, mechanically the games are the same. For an added bit of strategy, there are tourist attractions that reward the player for passing as part of their route, so keep that in mind when you’re placing your cabs!On each turn players have the option of drawing cards, playing cabs or acquiring new routes for scoring.ComponentsThe art on the cards is functional and the cards themselves are of a good quality. The cab pieces are as solid as the train pieces from any other version in the Ticket to Ride series. The game board is quite small, but this is by design. This game is meant to be quick to set up and tear down, and is even a good option for travelling. Instead of a score track, the game includes a score pad and pencil.My thoughtsIf you enjoy any of the Ticket to Ride games, you will likely enjoy this more condensed version. Myself, I don’t get the larger Ticket to Ride games out anymore unless I am playing with non gamers. That makes the New York edition an asset in my collection as it allows the Ticket to Ride experience in less than 20 minutes compared to the 45 - 60 minute larger experience. I also play this edition the most as a 2 player experience.Verdict:At this point, I would suggest this for anyone who may be a little burnt out on Ticket to Ride games; someone who still looks fondly upon the game but may not want the larger time commitment. Also, if you’re already into games but haven’t experienced the Ticket to Ride games, this is a simple entry point at a smaller price point. If you did not like the previous Ticket to Ride games this one will do nothing to change your mind.

I love games. I have a lot of them. My husband loves games less. He has little patience for games that take more than 15 or 20 minutes. (Even though he often wins if he plays). This is a fun game he will play any time, and one that our whole family really enjoys. It gives you a satisfying taste of the bigger Ticket to RIde game in a much shorter time frame.The map in this game is the city of London, and the "trains" are double decker buses. Points are awarded for placing buses on connections between cities, completing routes between cities, and connecting all the cities in a district. Turns are simple, consisting of either drawing transportation cards, placing buses using transportation cards, or taking new route cards.There is some tension as the map gets pretty tight when playing with a full complement of four players - that city you need to get to may be blocked off by one of your opponents. But take heart - this game only lasts 15 to 20 minutes, so any frustration you might encounter will be very temporary.Very fun for families, gamers who need a quick filler, or people wanting an easy entry into the wonderful world of hobby gaming.
