Ticket to Ride®

I'm honestly suprised seeing mixed revieuws for this game! Me and my partner have had close to 40 hours of fun and we own the real life board game. Getting the round the world tour expansion is very worth it if you are a fan of this board game!! I do have to add that the servers have had issues in the past with connections randomly getting broken but the game quality and vissuals i have to say i am very pleased with.

Incredible game ruined by predatory monetization – Disrespectful to players Rating: 1/5 I love Ticket to Ride. I love it so much that I paid to purchase the game. However, I am writing this review because the monetization strategy in this digital version is absolutely abysmal. The game is riddled with constant demands for "expansions" and additional payments. This practice drastically lowers my rating because it signals a complete lack of respect for the initial investment I made. I paid $6 for this game, and yet, the developers act as if that isn’t enough. To put this into perspective: the global mean monthly salary is roughly $1,480—which breaks down to about $9 per hour. That $6 I paid represents a significant portion of a day's work for much of the world, yet for this company, it’s clearly "not enough." This level of greed is insulting. The game itself is brilliant—I genuinely love the mechanics—but the way you have implemented these microtransactions feels like a slap in the face to your paying customers. It feels as though you are telling me that my money doesn't matter and that you have no intention of providing a complete experience. I am a child of the 80s. Back then, when you bought a game, you received the entire game—not half, not a quarter, not an eighth. You bought a product, and you owned it. This trend of "pay a little more, and maybe you'll eventually get the whole game" needs to end. If my $6 isn't enough for you to provide a fair experience, then good luck with your business model. I’m done.

The DLC keys cannot be activated, because "the original game was not activated". It is clearly false, so there is a main problem with this game.

Despite some co-op issues which arise from time to time, this is a great game to play. Any ages will enjoy it, with the DLC's there's sufficient variety to mix it up often. I play it with my hubby a lot, it's quick, low-key, no pressure. Just good 'ol fun.

Okay, I’ll keep it brief. The graphics simply aren't good. The predecessor was made with love, but this game was sloppily churned out in 3D. The graphics of the predecessor were much clearer, higher-resolution, and better. Unlike the predecessor, you completely lose any sense of the overall layout. There’s even a toggle to turn off the background texture, presumably because the developer realized what a piece of junk they’d created there. The design is just terrible. It doesn't have much to do with the board game anymore, the game was just slapped together haphazardly. There are so many obvious mechanical flaws and bugs that it’s painful. And they charge so much for individual maps that you could almost buy physical copies for the same price. It’s just stingy and unprofessional. I’m trying to get a refund for this bad purchase.

Same like the old one, easy to play and more importantly easy/quick to find games with the online Matchmaking feature. The DLC contains new maps in case you get bored and want to try something new. My only beef with the game... who the heck uses "Bubble" accounts these days? But i guess it's a minor one and takes only a few seconds to make one.

While I've always thought Ticket to Ride was a fun board game, the implementation of this shines above nearly anything that I've tried when it comes to local multiplayer via Steam Link on the TV. There is a companion app on the play store where each player sees only their hand and routes while the game itself is displayed beautifully on the TV screen. I would argue this type of functionality should be built into Steam Link, but it is not and the designer of this game does a fantastic job.
