Zug um Zug: Deutschland

A regional edition of the Ticket to Ride system set on a map of Germany and neighboring areas circa the turn of the 20th century. Players collect colored train cards to claim rail routes between cities, then use those routes to connect pairs of cities shown on secret destination tickets. Players score points for claiming routes and for completed tickets, while uncompleted tickets subtract points. The game uses the familiar draw-claim mechanics of the series with a modified card and ticket distribution and omits the passenger-moving variant present in one other regional release.
