With elegantly simple gameplay, Ticket to Ride can be learned in under 15 minutes, while providing players with intense strategic and tactical decisions every turn. Players collect cards of various types of train cars they then use to claim railway routes in North America. The longer the routes, the more points they earn. Additional points come to those who fulfill Destination Tickets -- goal cards that connect distant cities; and to the player who builds the longest continuous route.
- The game ends when a player only has 0,1 or 2 trains to place. This triggers the end of the game : Each accomplished destination makes us gain points, each destination not accomplished makes us lose these points and the player who owns the longest train receives a bonus of 10 points.
