On a blustery autumn evening, five old friends met in the backroom of one of the citys oldest and most private clubs. Each had traveled a long distance from all corners of the world to meet on this very specific day October 2, 1900 28 years to the day that the London eccentric, Phileas Fogg accepted and then won a 20,000 bet that he could travel Around the World in 80 Days. When the story of Foggs triumphant journey filled all the newspapers of the day, the five attended University together. Inspired by his impetuous gamble, and a few pints from the local pub, the group commemorated his circumnavigation with a more modest excursion and wager a bottle of good claret to the first to make it to Le Procope in Paris. Each succeeding year, they met to celebrate the anniversary and pay tribute to Fogg. And each year a new expedition (always more difficult) with a new wager (always more expensive) was proposed. Now at the dawn of the century, it was time for a new impossible journey. The stakes: $1 Million in a winner-takes-all competition.
The objective: to see which of them could travel by rail to the most cities in North America in just 7 days. The journey would begin immediately
This is how the original Ticket to Ride starts and our starting point for this trip Around the World in Eighty Turns.
The physical board game created by Alan R Moon was pitched to Days of Wonder in the World Boardgaming Championships lounge bar before being released in 2004. At that time the game had a different title: Station to Station!
This is the first Ticket to Ride prototype and after a long road, the digital version you know was released in 2011. The tablet version of Ticket to Ride was named the 2011 Digital Game of the Year by the Danish Guldbrikken (The Golden Pawn) Awards, which referred to the game as "the exemplar of how a board game makes the leap to the digital world without compromise,
Ticket to Ride is easy to learn but always refreshing. Each turn you choose between one of three actions: draw railway cards, draw destination cards or claim a route. You have 45 wagons to place and the game ends when any player has only 2 or fewer left. The longer the routes completed, the more points earned.
Later the expansion USA 1910 was released to be used with the same map.
USA 1910 also provides 3 new modes:
