Ticket to Ride United Kingdom + Pennsylvania Board Game Expansion - Strategy Game, Family Game for Kids & Adults, Ages 8+, 2-5 Players, 30-60 Minute Playtime

This is a great expansion! Not a standalone game like some of the other expansion sets, but adds some really fun and different strategic variables.

Great game

Arrived yesterday and entranced the family for hours, breaking the addiction to the original Ticket to Ride. The family immediately began playing the notorious robber baron, cut-throat Pennsylvania board. We soon discovered one must diversify one's stock holdings, keep an eye on what stocks are available and how many of them are issued to competitors. Be bold and obtain segments of those routes needed quickly while not giving hints of your intended destinations away too quickly. But, one must act fast and decisively if one intends to be the CEO of the greatest conglomerate holdings of the railroads that connect Pennsylvania with connecting states and Canada. Not for the non-competitive family members who might take "umbrage" if one or more of their intended routes are cut-off! The other side of the board, the United Kingdom game is also a very interesting if not decidedly different play. We found it much slower paced as one must decide to obtain advanced technology and pay with locomotive cards, or try to complete routes without the advancement of technology. The spoiler is the route to America which can be completed with locomotives in part, but without technology and rewards a massive amount of points. This is a more cerebral game in many aspects, but still avails the player of the fun and excitement of the Ticket to Ride experience.

We enjoy the series of games. They have different goals and strategies. It sometimes gets very competitive.

Note: you must have the original game!! My brother and my sister (sil) introduced us to the original game and while I was extremely hesitant, I’m absolutely addicted and is a must play everytime we’re together so when I saw this, I HAD to get it! It’s all the right things!! You get new destination cards, 2 new boards and a fresh deck of colored. It’s the same game, with a fresh new spin/twist! It’s easy to pick up!! I will say, I think this one is a bit harder then the original, less double track options (making you go the longer routes) and longer routes in general (but worth more points) I’m glad I decided to buy it and recommend it to anyone looking to add to their collection!!

We are big fans of the original Ticket to Ride. Since we live in PA, thought we’d try this version. Gameplay is similar to the original, but this version has railroad shares you can collect. These can be a game changer. Unfortunately, you need the original game to play this one, because the PA/UK version doesn’t have the trains you need to play the game. Kind of a lame way to save money. Game play is enjoyable, would recommend this game.

My family loves this entire game series and I'm happy I could jump on the chance to get this for myself at a great price. Only quibble to the "good" description for the copy I got was that it was explained as "minor cosmetic damage" to the top and bottom parts of the box. The extensive taping up I had to do to secure the box was a bit beyond minor. But the box is in decent shape now, and the game contents were fine. With this UK version, players also visit France, Wales, Ireland, and Scotland in pursuit of their train routes. This requires acquisition of visas to enter those countries (need train cards to buy them). Same thing for some of the enhanced resource cards. But my family has enjoyed this game on the times we've played. I don't think we've played the Pennsylvania side of the board yet, so I can't comment on that one. **It is important to note that this is another expansion set to the game series. You will need a copy of the original Ticket to Ride or Europe version for the train pieces and train cards.

My. husband and I have started having game night every Wednesday night accompanied by some wine. One of the first games we bought was Ticket to Ride and fell in love with it immediately. it was easy to play, a bit competitive and didn't require so much concentration that it ruined our wine buzz. We've since bought the 1910 Expansion Pack, Ticket to Ride Europe and the Nordic version. We thought we didn't need any more versions, but then this one sounded so interesting. I have to point out that this review is only for the Pennsylvania map, we haven't even tried the other side yet! The Pennsylvania side added shares of stock. When you complete a route, you can choose a share of stock to keep. You get points at the end of the game based on the number of shares of stock and how low your numbered stock is. It sounds like it might be confusing, but it's not at all. What makes this so fun is that you really have no idea who is going to win until the stock points are added up. Some stocks are worth more points than others and you learn to go for those first. There is no longest route bonus, so you don't have to focus on that, however there is a bonus for most completed destinations. Between that bonus and getting some good stock, you can surprisingly pull ahead at the end. We've watched some videos on how to play the United Kingdom side and it looks like it adds in several more layers, we'll probably start it soon and I'll come back and edit this review.

Expansión muy buena para el juego Ticket to Ride (Aventureros al Tren, en su versión española). Es importante remarcar que es necesario tener un juego base ya que este como expansión no incluye trenes ni cartas de tren, tan solo mapas nuevos y cartas de destino.

Compris rapidement la nouvelle règle, nickel

Good add-on to the main game (Ticket to Ride Europe). UK rules are complicated. Pennsylvania rules are simpler

Amazon perfetto come sempre, gioco superlativo! Consiglio di comprare anche questa versione di gioco, per chi conosce già Ticket to ride. Tabellone graficamente perfetto carte bellissime, variazioni di gioco intetessanti! 10 e lode!

Melhor expansão de ticket to ride! São 2 mapas com jogabilidades bem diferentes e excelente fator replay. Em um deles vc a cada rota ganha ações das companhias que podem mudar todo a pontuação e no outro vc compra as autorizações para fazer titãs maiores, além de ganhar diversos bônus.
