Ticket to Ride: First Journey (Europe)

Players collect colored train cards, claim routes on a map of Europe, and try to connect pairs of cities shown on their ticket cards. On a turn a player either draws two train cards or discards matching colored cards to place trains on a route of the same color and length. Completing a ticket by connecting its two cities scores it face up and earns a replacement ticket; players may discard unconnectable tickets to draw new ones. A special cross-continent ticket is awarded for linking certain western and eastern cities. The game ends when a player completes six tickets or places all their trains; most tickets completed determines the winner.
