Ticket to Ride Europe
May 11th, 2005We played Ticket to Ride Europe last night with four. I bought it for my brother-in-law’s birthday and it went down well, but it was not quite as popular as I envisaged. They were more enthusiastic about Havoc, Age of Steam and Wallenstein. Maybe, like me, they are getting a little jaded with medium-weight €uros? They were keener on it at the end of the game, which is a good sign.
I would have won, but I missed one of my tickets because the map was upside down and I did not notice that I had missed the very last station. I cannot remember seeing a small handicap like this swing the whole game. I will know better next time.

I’ve made mistakes over my route in the original T2R even with the map the right way up. Most embarrassing.

It is a fine game. Thanks for teaching it to me.
