What this is
In Ticket to Ride: Europe, players build train routes across Europe in this sequel to the hit family board game. Tunnels may require players to pay extra cards to build on them, Ferries require locomotive cards in order to claim them, and Stations allow players to sacrifice a few points in order to use an opponent's route to connect their own. The overall goal remains the same: collect and play train cards in order to place their pieces on the board, attempting to connect cities on their ticket cards.
