Great game with one change
This game is a really fun adaptation of the board game that I love to play. I like not having to count up all the pieces, shuffle and hold cards, and carefully place my trains on the board in the right spot. I love the ranking system as I think it demonstrates a players skill, but values their most recent game scores above their past ones.
One change that I would like to see made is a turn time limit. There is already a time limit for the whole game, but I believe one for a turn is needed! I’ve been in way too many games where the person who is clearly doing poorly stops playing, and the remaining players have to wait for his/her timer to run down. I played a game this morning where I had to wait 10 minutes until one player’s timer finally ran out just so we could take our last turn. The turn timers could be something set by the host of each game. I think anywhere from 30 seconds to 2 minutes would be good.

Still Crashes Way Too Much
Our family really LOVES this game. We have played either the board version or online version every day since I bought it three weeks ago, and we have almost all of the versions. However, it is incredibly frustrating that the app crashes multiple times during an evening of family night games. It’s almost to a point of always having to revert back to USA on the board game since most of the other online versions randomly crash either at the beginning of the Local setup or mid game. Don’t know if I should continuously log what is happening when it crashes to send to the company but I don’t know who wants it or will do anything with it.
Please figure it out. I can’t win the board game. 🤨

So frustrating...
Let’s start with what I liked...the game was easy to navigate and made me excited because it corresponded well to the tabletop version. My problem is the GLITCHES, and there were many. My opponent was a friend of mine, and after the game was over I checked with her and she confirmed that she also experienced them on her side.
-The game force quit SO many times.
-I would take 20 seconds to play a turn, and then suddenly I’d be missing 2 minutes of play time on my clock. I guess we were freezing up, but it was happening repeatedly on my end. It looked like her clock was running out, but then it would unfreeze and my time would be missing and hers would be given back. So by the end of the game, I had 4 minutes left and she had 30.
-When I completed my first route, I had to play the same turn 4 times because it would say I completed it and then restart my turn and wipe away the turn’s progress.
I’m pretty upset that I spent what I did on that app. I’m not usually one to spend money on apps, but I love the table top version and wanted to play with my friend in another state, so it would’ve been well worth it to spend that, but I don’t know if I’ll want to play again after the hassle.

Losing star rating
After owning this app for many years and buying several versions, Ticket To Ride’s new avatar banner reminder is making me hate the game. It was bad enough when we were constantly being badgered to take our turn, now the banner blocks the screen making it difficult to play. WTH! I’ve tried adjusting the speed but to no avail.
I don’t know what you were thinking but it’s time to remove this irritant. Don’t tell us it’s for new players. That’s nonsense. The rest of us didn’t have any trouble figuring out how to play. Are you insinuating that the current group of customers is too stupid to learn?
Please listen to the legions who are making this complaint. We represent thousands who don’t take the time to write.
Thank you

PLEASE DO NOT BUY-APP STOLE MY MONEY
I really loved this game and the online features especially given that it allowed me to play with friends online during this quarantine. I paid $6.99 and it was working up until the update. I updated the game two days ago and now I can barely open a game. The game will blink and glitch whenever it’s my turn. I have to exit the game, restart, log back in despite having automatic login, just to see that the clock’s kept going so I lost a minute. But then, it keeps glitching so I redo the process and now I’ve lost another minute. Sometimes it’ll glitch where I will have to put my card down 3-4 times because it didn’t register then I’ve lost more time. This was a good game but now I’m trying to get a refund because the frustration and anger isn’t worth it. If anyone can comment suggestions for other games, I’d greatly appreciate it!

Ruined with “it’s your turn” banner
I love this game, and I love this app, but sometimes the updates are completely unnecessary and ruin the game experience. This latest update introduced the “it’s your turn” banner which pops up a big sign that covers 1/3 of the board, and there’s no way to turn it off! This game requires studying the board every turn to look for new or vanishing opportunities and plan your turn, so now you have to swipe the annoying banner out of the way to see the map and plan your turn, which has caused me to accidentally take actions or grab cards I didn’t want, a HUGE no-no in the strategy of this game! There’s also ZERO need for it in solo mode which is what I play most often. I wait because I’m studying, NOT because I can’t figure out when it’s my turn—please make an option to turn this “feature” off in the settings. Until then, I won’t be playing.

Response from developer
Hello, We are really sorry that you felt so disappointed by the last feature introduced in the update. I have sent your feedback to our teams so they can be aware of it. Thank you, Asmodee Digital Support
New update....not a fan
New update with the turn bar is worse idea ever, far more annoying and obtrusive then the previous notification. What really needs to be addressed is AI in Solo Games which is primarily what I play. After player completes a couple of routes or getting below 20 trains the AI blows all their trains to end the game as quickly as possible until they get down to 3 trains and then it will draw cards endlessly. Not really fun game play it this should be addressed as well as removing the stupid turn bar. Even with annoyances I still rate game high as I am huge fan of board game, just need to get the electronic version right for those who love the game

Crash crash crash
Really fun game but I prefer the board game version since it doesn’t crash on you. The app crashes on average 3-4 times per game on solo and every turn on multiplayer games. I have uninstalled the app and redownloaded it but that didn’t help at all.
Second issue, “your turn”, “your turn”, “your turn “. Shut up! I know it’s my turn. Especially on solo play. There should be an option to turn it off or at least slow down the frequency of reminders. I get the benefit but does it have to be every 2 seconds?
Like I said, fun game but unless these two things are fixed then I wouldn’t get it. I’m looking into refund options.
I will update the review when these things are fixed. Don’t get this game for now.

Fun base game. Online forum VULGAR
I play in real life, and offline with the app. I love this game, especially Pennsylvania. I just tried to play online, and the games were all locked to me because I do not have enough experience. I looked to the chat to try to find someone willing to play with a noobie, and it was all N word this, towel head that, sexual talk... one administrator temporarily muted one person, but the others continued with racism and vulgarity. I guess as long as they put spaces between the letters it was not flagged (?!). I left. I wish It had been better moderated. It is 2 am, but, still, my first experience is marred badly, I am unlikely to give it another shot. Too bad, I love this game.

Stole my money: Problem Fixed
After reaching out to tech support the problem was resolved. The team was very prompt. Only took about a day to rectify the situation.
I bought this game about a year and a half ago and it was fantastic. I even bought several of the expansion packs. However, about a year ago the developers updated the app and ever since then I always get the message “In app purchases are not allowed”. I can’t restore! I thought that it was just a bug and would be remedied in a later update, but since it has been a year since the issue started I don’t think that they will fix this issue.
