Ticket to Ride (iOS / Android) Review

For this blog’s first foray into mobile gaming I begin with a review of Ticket to Ride, a board game adapted for play on iOS and Android devices.  The basic object of the game is to draw cards which can then be used to claim railway lines on the map, if you claim more lines than your opponent, you win! 

To a newcomer to the game it may look daunting but fortunately there is an excellent tutorial which guides you through every aspect to get you up and running quickly.  You start off with one map but further maps are available as optional in-game purchases.

As a lifelong railway enthusiast I really enjoy this game, it’s extremely well presented, looks great and is really engrossing to play.  Even if you’re not interested in trains at all it’s still well worth a look if you like a bit of strategy!
