'Ticket to Ride' Digital Board Game Hits Android Tablets

Popular board game-turned-iPad success Ticket to Ride makes its Android debut for Android tablets on Thursday.

Ticket to Ride is both a physical and digital board game in which players try to build a dominant railroad network across the United States. Players must race to complete their secret assigned routes between major cities while preventing their opponents from doing the same. Players can compete online or locally against four different types of AI or use pass-and-play with their friends.

The traditional board game was released in 2004 by Days of Wonder, and then it made its transition to the digital format in 2008 for PC, Mac and through the web browser. Ticket to Ride came to iPads in 2011, and has sold over 2 million copies on all digital platforms. Read more…
