Product Description

Ticket to Ride: New York brings the famous Ticket to Ride formula into a smaller, faster city adventure. Players race through Manhattan and Brooklyn, claiming routes, completing destination tickets, and connecting tourist attractions as they move around the busy streets of 1960s New York.

It keeps the simple, satisfying feel that makes Ticket to Ride so popular, but in a shorter format that is easy to teach and quick to replay. This makes it a superb choice for families, new players, travel play, and game nights where you want something light but still rewarding.

Good to Know

• This is a standalone game
• A great choice for players who want Ticket to Ride in a smaller, quicker format
• In 2-player games, once one side of a double route is claimed, the other side cannot be claimed, which makes route timing extra important
• The game ends when a player has two or fewer plastic taxis left, so rounds stay brisk and competitive

Care & Maintenance

• Keep the cards flat and store the taxis together so setup stays quick
• Store the board and scorepad neatly in the box to help keep everything in good condition
