Ticket to Ride® The Board Game 4+

Improving

Writing to say that I was going to give it three out of five stars as an improved score from my first rating when it opened up. I changed my rating to a four star due to the significant improvements in the development of this game. With that said, I am writing the review now because my game shows that I have two games out there that are just spinning as if I was the only player out there. I was in the midst of playing a four person online game and only my name was on the screen INI like it does when you’re seeing who gets to go first. Hopefully this is going to be fixed soon because I am now enjoying the game again. I am still having difficulty with the colors on the screen and have a hard time seeing where trains are put down on the colored tracks. It would be nice if the tracks were pastel with the trains being brighter, perhaps? The light wave that goes through the trains makes it even harder to distinguish so if I’m glancing over the board and a wave was going over it sometimes I have thought that the train wasn’t there and then when I look back it is, I am not sure if that is necessary and it does not enhance the game. I am happy to be able to play competitively against other people again and to see the European board up.

They fixed it right!!!

I’m a long time fan of the board game and own almost every expansion. I wanted so bad to get it for tablet, but held off due to all the reviews saying the graphics were painful and the turn prompter infuriating. Well, I finally downloaded this based on the latest reviews saying all that was fixed, and I’m here to confirm it’s true! This app is now everything a board game port should be — faithful to the original in appearance and style, with added QOL features that only a digital version can provide. The game looks beautiful, plays fast and flawlessly, and allows the player to choose the map, the ruleset, the route set, even the look of your train pieces! I was overjoyed to find my favorite maps already available, including Nordic, India, and Europe (all card sets). Even the original U.S. map, which was ugly as sin in the board game, is alive and pretty here. Most of all, the app absolutely delivers the board game experience, with frosting on top 😊 And that includes single player. It is genuinely heartwarming to see a developer paying such serious attention to prior complaints and making everything right. Boy, did they. If you love Ticket to Ride, this app has it all. Hesitate to download no more!

Started smoothly….

Let me start by saying how much that both myself and my fiancé love this game. I previously owned the other one 2 years ago but that was discontinued. Recently we downloaded this version and bought the expansion packs that were available . We normally play against each other and really enjoy this as kinda “quiet time “ with one another enjoying each others company . These past two days when playing against one another the game has frozen and booted me from the game. I had originally thought that it may be a WiFi issue so I disconnected WiFi and proceeded to go back to the game utilizing the “my games” tab. That seemed to temporarily fix it however it happened again when not on WiFi. The issue that prompted me to write this was that after an additional hour of play my fiancé had the same issue. Any ideas why this happened? At the very least I felt that I should alert you in case that it’s an ongoing issue. I would also like to see additional expansion other than the two that I have purchased.

Thank you,
Allen Hill
