With higher trim level and an increased price to match, luxury editions of games aren’t meant for most. More often than not, the standard edition of a game will suit you just fine. However, a trend I’ve noticed since the release of the fancy 10th anniversary edition of Ticket to Ride is the growing number of designer games getting the tricked out treatment. As a proud owner of that particular luxury edition, I’m all for the release of other games in this manner.

Ticket to Ride 10th Anniversary Edition Impressions
To celebrate the landmark release of Ticket to Ride in 2004, Days of Wonder has put out a special 10th anniversary edition of the classic board game. This premium package includes all of the content from the USA 1910 Expansion, larger cards, a double-sized board and new custom trains for each colour. It also comes with a premium price tag, as we got ours for about $80 before tax. For context, you can get the same amount of content by buying the original game for $40, the expansion for $16 and still have $24 left in your pocket.
Despite owning the original and the expansion, Steff and I have been waiting for the right time to upgrade. Thanks to a gift card that Steff received for her birthday, we now have this mammoth-sized game sitting on our shelf. Is it worth upgrading from coach to a first class ticket?
