TICKET TO RIDE INDIA

MAP COLLECTION 2

 

Two more maps for Ticket to Ride / Zug um Zug. Basic mechanics of all Ticket to Ride editions are to connect as many cities as possible with your Train Cars. In your turn, you can draw train cards or use a track between cities by placing one of your wagons on each section of the track and discarding cards in the color of the track or draw destination cards. You score for tracks between cities, uninterrupted tracks according to your destination cards and the longest uninterrupted track. You win if you achieve the highest score.

India is intended for 2-4 players and features 59 new destination cards; you are dealt 4 at the start of the game and keep 2. Later, if you want new ones, you draw 3 and must keep at least one. The map for India features ferries. For a ferry you must discard one locomotive card for each marked spot of the ferry track and train cards for the normal track spots. When you connect two cities of destination card with two separate tracks you score a bonus.

Schweiz is intended for 2-3 players, some of the new 46 destination cards connect Switzerland to neighboring countries. You may take locomotive cards like normal cards, but can use them only on tunnel tracks. For a tunnel you discard the necessary number of cards, then you turn up three cards and must discard an additional card from your hand for each card turned up that shows the color you used for the track.

Ticket to Ride India again offers new interesting details for the Game of the Year 2004, and in this case a revival of the Edition Switzerland for all who missed the first one. If you own Ticket to Ride, you will want India!
