What this is
In Ticket to Ride: Nordic Countries, players build railways to connect destinations across Scandinavia and neighboring countries. The goal in "Nordic" remains the same as base Ticket to Ride: collect and play cards to place their trains on the board, attempting to connect the different cities on their ticket cards. Unlike the USA or Europe maps, Nordic is designed for 2-3 players only and has a heavier focus on blocking their opponent and more aggressive play.
