Days of Wonder Ticket To Ride: First Journey

Days of Wonder Ticket To Ride: First Journey

Q: What’s the premise of this game and could a 3 year old play?

I recently bought this game and have played it with my 3.5 year old a few times. He loves it, but I have modified the game a bit to account for his age. For instance, we play his turns together, which means there's less strategy since I know exactly what routes he's trying to travel. The ticket cards have icons on them representing the cities, so that helps a lot, since he cannot read yet, but he can match the images on the cards to those on the board. Overall, I'd say this is a stretch board game for a 3 year old, but totally possible. It helps that my toddler loves trains, so this game holds his attention.

Q: Is this too young for a child turning 10?

Yes. I bought this as a Christmas present for my daughter last year (when she was 9), b/c she was hesitant to try "real" Ticket to Ride. We played this "Junior" version exactly ONCE. The "light went on" for my 9-year-old, as I suggested there really wasn't that much more "complication" in the "real" TtR. She then tried TtR, and loved it. We have all the expansions, etc., and play it regularly--and she beats me most of the time . . . ! So after playing the "Junior" version ONCE--we took it to McKay's (used books & games, etc.) and sold it. My advice is, if your child is "turning 10"--then go ahead and get the "regular" Ticket to Ride; I definitely recommend the "1910" expansion as well, particularly to get the "full-size" train cards. Have fun!

Q: how does this compare to ticket to ride days of wonder

The Ticket to Ride First Journey is our first and only game of the many Ticket to Ride board games. The analogy that I have seen is that the Days of Wonder and First Journey are comparable to traditional Monopoly and Monopoly Jr. It takes less time to play, is less complicated but the strategy of the game is the same. My family with 7 and 8 yr old boys have had a great time playing the game!

Q: Is this the American or Europe board game?
