Swiss Expansion Arrives for 'Ticket to Ride'

Ticket to Ride: Switzerland Expansion Brings New Routes and Challenges!

The popular digital board game, Ticket to Ride, is expanding its railway empire with the new Switzerland expansion. This exciting addition opens up routes through Switzerland and its neighboring countries, introducing both country-to-country and city-to-country connections. This change adds a new layer of strategic depth to the gameplay.

The expansion also includes two new playable characters and four new route tokens, making it a perfect holiday gift for Ticket to Ride enthusiasts. Developed by Marmalade, the expansion isn't just about new locations; it introduces fresh gameplay mechanics. These country-to-country routes, for example, require players to connect countries indicated on their tickets, offering various point values depending on the chosen connection (e.g., France to Germany, Italy, or Austria). City-to-country tickets present a similar challenge, but with cities as one endpoint.

Strategic planning is key. Each country has a limited number of connection points, forcing players to prioritize their route building. Successfully completing a route earns points based on the ticket's highest value; failure to connect results in a point deduction based on the lowest value.

The Switzerland Expansion is available now on Google Play, the App Store, and Steam, with PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox releases coming soon. Stay updated on Ticket to Ride news by following MarmaladeGames on Facebook and Instagram.
