Ticket to Ride® in IOS

Digital Tabletop Train Game

Walkthrough, Guilds, Tips on this special game

Our Expert Score

94/100

Ticket to Ride on mobile is a masterclass in how to port a beloved board game to a digital format. It manages to capture the elegant simplicity of the original while adding the tactical depth and convenience that only a digital version can provide. The UI is clean and intuitive, making it incredibly easy to manage your train routes and secret objectives without the clutter of physical pieces.

From a strategic standpoint, the AI is remarkably competent, offering a genuine challenge for veteran players. The addition of online multiplayer and a variety of maps (from the USA to Europe) ensures that the gameplay never feels stale. The animations are charming and enhance the board game feel rather than distracting from it. It is arguably the best board game adaptation on the App Store, providing an authentic, high-quality experience for both families and serious strategists.

Each turn, players can draw two train cards from the face-up pile, draw two train cards from the face-down pile, draw another ticket to complete, or use their train cards to claim a route! A claimed route is shown by placing train pieces along the route.

When a player has three or fewer train pieces left, the last round starts. Whoever has the most points at the end of the game is the winner!
