Never play games, during covid thought id try a game bought because said it sold millions copies.Its very easy to learn, a game takes about 1 - 2 hours depending how slow players are.Its good quailty and the size can fit on a shelf.You need 2 players 3-4 is best.Its a good beginner game or a game you want to learn rules in 5 minutes.

A modern classic
Ticket to Ride is one of the classic modern style board games. I've been playing it on iPad for years, and whilst the app is good, it doesn't compare to playing it for real with the beautiful board and the colourful train pieces and cards.Although I was already familiar with the rules, I was surprised by how easy it was to learn for new players - I've introduced three new players to the game and they all picked it up straight away (and annoyingly beat me in some cases!)The one criticism I have is that the train cards and tickets are very small, and seem a bit like they were skimped on. This can be rectified by buying the 1910 expansion which has full sized train cards and tickets, but they really should have been provided as standard. On the opposite size, providing a bag of spare train pieces is a nice touch.The game's fun with two players, and that's how I've always played the app version, but it's especially good with three and four players. The gameplay really is so well designed and keeps the game flowing so well and exciting to the end.Games like Ticket to Ride don't seem to be nearly as well known as they should be. This, together with Carcassonne and perhaps a couple of others should feature just as commonly in homes as do more traditional games like Monopoly (actually more commonly, because it's a much better game than Monopoly).It has a mainstream appeal that I don't think is necessarily made particularly clear by its box and marketing, but I'd highly recommend that people give it a try, and if you like it, have a look at the 1910 expansion and some of the additional maps too.

We enjoyed it
This was a fun game that made us think of Catan and similar. We do think however it is 'solvable' for a family of 5 this has been a nice addition to our collection.The cards are a little small but well made, the board is also well made and printed. The pieces are good and you get a couple of spares for each colour (just in case). Well packed in the box with mostly clear instructions, but we did have to read a couple of them twice.

Great little game. Wholesome family fun
Ticket to Ride is a must-play. There is very little downtime between actions, as each player can only do one thing and actions resolve quickly.The rules are very simple for anyone to understand, but the objective/goal cards give the whole game a greater depth, replay-ability and purpose beyond just simply connecting random cities together. Even the most hardcore game enthusiasts among us got really into the game and enjoyed it.If you're looking for a great board game for a reasonable price, with lots of replay-ability, this is a great game to start with. Just be warned, you need quite a good sized table to play.

Trains, Cards and Strategy
What seems to be complicated at a glance is actually rather straightforward, the board contains a variety of train lines/ tracks and key points that indicate destinations/ cities.Your goal is to collect tickets and then trade them in to lay tokens onto the train lines, additionally there's special goal cards that give bonus points for connecting specific cities.This is game that runs similar, in a fashion, to the card game rummy, where collection of tickets is the collection of cards, but there's a tactical edge. By placing train tokens you can lock up train lines and block other players paths without knowing, till the end of the game.Overall this is a fairly easy game to learn the basics of, and get the great experience from it, but it takes practice to figure it out completely.I think that the more players involved in the game the more entertaining it is but I expect it to be a lot more frustrating as your path to victory is filled up.A great introduction game to non traditional board games and a pathway to the board gaming hobby.
