Rio Grande Games Transamerica Game

This game is so fun! I also have the Ticket to Ride game, which I love. This game isn't quite as complicated and can be played a bit quicker. We take it to game days with friends and it's a popular choice

My sons saw this at a gaming convention and said it was fun. They were right. It’s a game that can be played with little skill, this would be a good game for many ages.

This is an incredibly simple game that can be learned by anyone in a couple minutes. A single game (ignore the game tracker) plays very quickly and has great replay value. This is a perfect into into board gaming as a hobby. This or Ticket to Ride are how to get new players in.

This is a great game to play.

This is not a deep strategy game. But I play it with my grandkids, and they love it. My grandson played it when he was 5 and couldn't read yet, but he could match the colors, and the first couple letters of each city. (We had to watch out for SAcramento and SAn Francisco.) I have a ton of games, and every one doesn't have to last 3 hours.If you're just starting out with board games, I'd recommend Camel Up, Union Pacific, Settlers of Cataan, and Lost Cities. And RA and Pickominos, and Atlantic Star and Splendor....and Bananagrams is fast and fun if you're a Scrabble and/or Boggle fan.

10/10

This is a simple, but addicting game that your gaming group and non-gamers can play together. Games are short so multiple rounds are possible (even demanded). There is a lot of strategy of when you connect to other players railway lines.This one is great as a warm up or cool down to playing more complex strategy games.

We love Ticket to Ride but it takes a couple of hours. Trans America is a similar game but much simpler and can be completed in a shorter time, or you can choose to play more rounds. Trying to connect your trains to your secret cities is fun and in this game you can build on others railroads. We played it with adults but think our grand kids (9 and 11) could master it.
