Ticket to Ride is incredibly easy to learn and this particular version can be played in as little as 15 minutes. It’s best not to hang on to too many cards though, as any journeys at the end of the game that haven’t been placed will cost you points – and if you’re unlucky, the game. Points on the board are then added up and the player with the most points wins.
The game ends when a player has two or fewer taxis left. Throughout the game, you can pick up cards from the deck and use these to place cars on different routes (providing you have the right card combo). To start, each player gets a set of coloured taxis, as well as two transportation and destination cards. Longer routes and popular destinations get you more points. The idea of the game is to claim popular taxi routes across the board by playing a group of matching coloured cards. This follow-up to the highly popular Ticket to Ride game is a fast-paced race perfect for two players. Ticket to Ride (New York Edition): Best quick two-player game
