I generally only use the PC version to play online, as the interface is somewhat better than the applet, and it allows use of the Switzerland map. So I really can’t comment on the AI in the PC version.

I hope they add the Marklin edition to the online game soon!

Agree 100%. Ticket to Ride is a great game and the online version is very faithful to the original, even if the AI is a bit poor. What’s the PC version’s AI like? Do they go out of their way to stop routes?

I’ve been quite happy with the PC version. By default it wants to take over your whole screen, but it can be configured to run in a window, and to turn off the background music. It’s the most enjoyable turn-based multiplayer computer game I’ve found.

Thanks for writing the ticket to ride article.
Have you since gotten the PC game?
I’m looking forward to ordering it (after my next paycheck) and am interested in your further thoughts.
With respective,
