Embark on a new journey through the heart of Europe with the latest expansion for the acclaimed digital strategy board game, Ticket to Ride. The Switzerland Expansion now opens up a thrilling route to Switzerland, allowing players to expand their railroad empires across Switzerland and its neighboring countries. This exciting addition brings both country-to-country and city-to-country routes, challenging players to strategize and connect various locations across the map.
In celebration of the holiday season, developer Marmalade has released this expansion as a special gift to fans. Alongside the new routes, the Switzerland Expansion introduces two captivating new characters and four unique tokens, enhancing the gameplay experience. Designed for both newcomers and seasoned players, this expansion encourages a dynamic play style with fresh mechanics that will require you to rethink your strategies.
With country-to-country tickets, you'll need to link one country to another as specified on your ticket. Each ticket offers multiple options, such as connecting France to Germany, Italy, or Austria, with varying point values for each successful connection. Similarly, city-to-country tickets challenge you to link a specific city to a designated country. Each country has a limited number of nodes, urging players to make swift and strategic decisions to secure the most valuable routes.
Points are awarded based on the highest-scoring completed connection for each ticket. However, failing to make any connections results in a deduction of points equivalent to the lowest value on the ticket. This risk-and-reward system adds an extra layer of excitement and strategy to the game.
The Switzerland Expansion is now available for download on Google Play, the App Store, and Steam, with upcoming releases planned for PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox. Stay updated with the latest news and developments from Ticket to Ride by following MarmaladeGames on Facebook and Instagram.
