About the game
Ticket to Ride: Nordic Countries takes the beloved train-collecting formula to Denmark, Finland, Norway, and Sweden, connecting the great Nordic capitals with colorful train cars. Designed specifically for two or three players, it emphasizes tighter blocking and more aggressive route completion than the larger base maps. Ferries and tunnels add extra wrinkles to the classic hand-management and set-collection gameplay.
Hobbli's Notes
This smaller-format Ticket to Ride map is a favorite for date nights and duos, since the tighter two-to-three-player design ramps up direct competition for routes compared to the sprawling base game. It keeps everything players love about the series while trimming the map down to a more focused, aggressive experience.
What we like
- Tight 2-3 player design increases direct competition.
- Easy-to-learn rules perfect for families.
- Attractive Nordic-themed map and components.
- Quick 60-minute playtime.
Keep in mind
- Limited to only two or three players.
- Less content than the larger base game maps.
- May feel too similar if you already own another Ticket to Ride edition.
Who it's for
Great for ages 8+, casual and family gamers in groups of 2-3 who enjoy classic route-building games.
