Ticket to Ride

Ticket to Ride is another board game I have really enjoyed. In Ticket to Ride your goal is to have the most points by the end of the game. The board is a map of America with train routes and cites all over it. On your first turn you get your three routes and you have to keep at least to of them. The routes have two places and a point value on them. You get the point value if by the end of the game you have connected those two places with your trains and if you haven't you lose that amount of points. Every turn you can do one of three things, you can draw more routes, pick train cards, or place a train. Train cards come in many colors and are needed to place a train.To place a train you need to have as many cards as the train is long all of the color of the train slot on the board. You also get points depending on how long the train you placed in. The game is over after the round in which one person has two or fewer trains. Ticket to Ride is super fun for beginners and people who know the game better because it does have quite a bit of luck however several strategies that you can use to sway the game in your favor. This is one of the best if not they best game to introduce someone to board games and really hook them because how easy and fun it is for new players.
