Description: Pack your bags and climb aboard! The Ticket to Ride: Europe Tournament takes you on a magnificent train adventure across the continent. From Edinburgh to Constantinople, you’ll be competing to claim routes, connect iconic cities, and build your railway empire. Elegant in its simplicity, the game can be learned in 5 minutes flat, making this tournament highly accessible to both casual family players and veteran players alike!
This event operates using a No-Elimination format, ensuring every participant remains paired across all active rounds. You will compete in 4-player games (or 3-player tables if player counts require it), earning Match Points based on your finishing position each round.
First place receives 3 Match Points, second receives 2, third receives 1, and fourth receives 0.
Alongside Match Points, your in-game score track totals will be recorded as your Quality Score. From Round 3 onwards, you will be paired directly against players with similar tournament standings, sorted by Match Points first and Quality Score second.
Whistle stops, stations, and long continuous tracks await. Will your route reign supreme?
