Hi! It’s Ryan from Nights Around a Table, and this is Ticket to Ride, a set-collecting board game for 2-5 players where you travel along train routes. Here’s The Deal:

You and your friends play turn-of-the-century rivals who, inspired by Phileas Fogg from Jules Verne’s Around the World in Eighty Days, gin up a million dollar contest to see who can travel by rail to the most cities in a single week. You’ll be collecting tickets to different destinations, and marking railroad routes with your plastic trains to visit those specific cities. You’re committed to visiting the cities on your tickets. At the end of the game, any routes you complete are worth positive points, but any you miss are worth negative points! When a player runs out of trains, the end of the game is triggered. Everyone gets one last turn, and whoever has the most points wins!

Well, does it sound interesting?
