some skill but"i like that it takes some skill but not so much that the game is constantly held up while players contemplate their next moves"
|
57.3% |
losing less personal"the game is technically competitive but so far we've played it where we each just focus on building our own paths rather than trying to interfere with each other so it's a game that makes losing less personal if you have to play with folks who get their feelings hurt too easily"

53.5% |
time limit"some things to keep in mind: even though you can play with five players i would recommend keeping it around three or four unless you impose a time limit on turns because people can take forever to make decisions which can stall gameplay and turn it into a "when is it my turn again" type of game"

52.6% |
repetitive game play"pros: quick turns it isn't over till it's over cons: can be repetitive game play is pretty simple: you start with some secret tickets with cities on them that you have to connect together to get points then you either draw cards build with the cards in your hand or get more tickets"

|
51.4% |
blocked their route"2 player games allow you the ability to stay away from each other for the most part but it does extremely stressful with 4 or more players as you will have multiple people not happy you blocked their route early and they have to live with not making their routes : don't let 4 5 players stop you from playing though great game and look for it to play with family"
