Отличное приложение!

Всей семьёй любим Ticket to ride и с этим приложением не заморачиваемся с подсчетом очков во время игры) считаем после окончания партии)

Great App!

App is awesome!

Inacurate

The description states it allows you to use 48 trains total, which is t actually allowed in game play, the 3 extra trains are replacements. Also this allows for a chain of 9 trains, and the basic game only allows room for a chain of 6 trains.

Does the job but annoying

Overrides the volume in an annoying loud way. Sounds are annoying and only totals one player at a time.

FAQ

What does the Train Counter app do?

The Train Counter app is a utility designed to help players of the board game 'Ticket to Ride' quickly and accurately tally their train scores at the end of a game. It aims to eliminate errors and the need for re-counts.

How does the validation check work?

The validation check helps prevent re-counts by comparing the total number of train cars counted with the number of cars available in the game. After counting, the app displays the total cars used. You can then deduct this number from the starting amount (e.g., 48 cars) and compare the result to the number of unused cars to ensure accuracy.

Is this app official or affiliated with Ticket to Ride?

No, this app is not affiliated with Days of Wonder or Ticket to Ride. It is a fan-made utility created by a player to assist other fans of the game.

What are the benefits of using this app over manual counting?

The app offers significantly faster and more accurate score tallying compared to manual methods. The distinct audible sounds for each button also make the counting process easier to follow and validate in real-time, reducing the chance of mistakes.

What are the costs associated with this app?

The app is free to download and use. It does offer in-app purchases, which may unlock additional features or functionality, but the core score-counting utility is available without cost.
