The main issue I have with the original US map is the route selection. You randomly get two long routes that work together, you probably won the game, unless someone block you, which mean you are dead last.

With Europe rated so low, I don't know if I can ever trust Tom again!!! Fine, Tom is still my go to guy and I'm glad he had UK/PA map pack so high. Thanks for doing this one Tom! It was really interesting to see your perspective on such a classic series.

Thanks Tom!!! TTR Europe was one of the first games I got. I liked it but it didn't impress me that much. Years later I got all the map packs and this is one of my fav games of all time. It's so much fun and you can also get some new players to the table ... and they have a chance to win on their first game.

It's a great franchise ... thanks Tom for pointing that out so many times.

Great video! Very nice to hear Tom's opinion on each game. My favourite is Rails and Sails, and we like to stretch it as much as possible!

[denisebraun-ncdz]

Thank you so much for this!!!! My husband and I are new to the game and we play the Europe version. We changed it up a bit. For a two-player game, we each use two sets of trains, we start with 10 train cards, two long routes, and three short routes. It is so fun. We love it!

Thank you so much for this very helpful video!

Great review! We just played Japan and loved it.

[raymonddavies]

I think Zee should do the same for Pandemic.

Started with ticket to ride London and love it. I've been looking to get another and had no idea there were so many choices, I'll definitely be having a look for some of these other cool maps. Thanks for the info 😊😊👍👍

[stschubs]

thank you for posting a shorter list video! perfect length for me!

[Aran.Tech.Television]

Something similar for Dominion and other popular games with lots of content would be great!

I picked up rails and sails as a first ticket to Ride game about two years ago because I had played the app in the past and the game was on sale. We quickly realized a flaw. You can almost disregard your missions and just go for the long routes and you'll likely win. This is made easy with the double ship cards. A 7 space route might only use 4 cards. I imagine if everyone would compete for those spaces that may mitigate that issue, but usually players are focused on missions so it's kind of game breaking...
Now I've picked up the new anniversary edition of Europe, and everyone seems to like it alot more. With 4-5 players it can still get highly competitive.

0:55 I must admit that, I've exactly come here to hear your opinion on Polish map :D As I'm going to buy it for my parents, as they love to play in TtR:EU and even sometimes they play with theirs neighbors. Nonetheless, thank you for this great video!

[kailomonkey]

I just got London as my first Ticket To Ride. I think it's going to serve me well as a quick taste of the full game. I can play it with my m'm who tires easily from brain-work, and I hope to play it at a new gaming group for a quick turnaround where they only meet for 1.5 hours and anyone could drop in late.

[davidvelazquez]

This was one of the most informative videos that I've seen put out by you guys. Thank you!

[stanwilschut]

Thank you for this vid! Personally by watching this video I once again saw that these games could be experienced completely different for everyone. Ive played quite a few versions and rails and sails is my absolute favorite, and Asia is probably in second place. So if you maybe dont like his number 1, you might love some other versions

[Gmoney]

Hey Tom, could we get an updated TTR list in 2025? Would be great to see if anything has changed or where the new stuff would end up.

[dannys_]

I'm still a basic purist - USA (+1910) for me. I've played Europe, and maybe Asia once, but I don't really like making a simple game more complex with extra rules when it's not necessary. USA keeps things at its simplest. New York and London are thus also good :D

[themonkeyhand]

When we gonna get Ticket to Ride World? Legacy game with a giant 12 panel world map board.

[tiagomarques]

I’d love to watch such a video about all the Carcassonne stuff: base game, expansions and spin offs. Sam would have been ideal for such a list: I wonder if someone else in the Dice Tower would be able to do it now. They would have to have played it all several times to rank all the items.

[ClariceWilcox]

I was surprised Rails and Sails didn't rank higher, it is by far our favourite!
