"Ticket to Ride's Latest Update: Journey to Japan"

Just a few months after the Switzerland expansion made its digital debut, Ticket to Ride is back with another fan-favourite map, Japan. This marks the first time the Japan Expansion has transitioned from physical to digital, and it comes with a unique twist: teamwork and collaboration are essential for success.

The Japan map introduces the exciting Bullet Train network to Ticket to Ride, featuring high-speed shared routes that span the country. While everyone can use these routes, players are also expected to contribute to their construction. Skipping the teamwork aspect results in a hefty 20-point penalty at the end of the match, creating a delicate balance between competition and cooperation.

Beyond strategic gameplay, the expansion introduces two new characters deeply rooted in Japanese culture. Nakanishi Kimiko, a travel blogger, explores Japan's vibrant festivals with her loyal dog, while Moriyama Isamu, a Gyoji referee, brings a traditional touch to the board, connecting players with the country's rich history.

The expansion also includes four new railcars to enhance your train collection. The Ichi Eki Saki train and Tsuki Sleeper carriage offer a relaxed, scenic journey, whereas the Isogaba Maware train and Hayai carriage are designed for speed, ideal for navigating Japan's fast-paced routes.

This expansion arrives just in time for spring, the perfect season to experience Japan's stunning sakura. Download Ticket to Ride now by clicking on your preferred link below.
