First, nearly every route on the game board is a double-route, with two tracks connecting cities. Both of these routes are in play no matter how many players are in the game.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSecond, every route — whether double or single — has a bridge toll that a player must pay when building on that route. On a single route or the first track of a double route, the player pays this toll — which costs 1-4 coins — to the bank; on the second track of a double route, the player pays this toll to the player who built the first track. Players start the game with 30 coins, and if you can't pay a toll, you must take a loan card to cover the fare, with each loan costing you 5 points at the end of the game.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to helping you avoid loans, coins matter because at game's end, players receive a bonus based on how many coins they hold relative to everyone else. In a five-player game, for example, the player with the most coins scores a 55 point bonus; the 2nd place player scores 35 points, and the other players 20, 10 and 0 points. If you've taken a loan, however, you're ineligible for this bonus scoring, so players have an incentive to build early and often.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese coin bonuses are balanced by the multitude of destination tickets with large point values: six of them are worth 29+ points while another seventeen are worth 17-26 points.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Capes and Crepes Board Game Cafe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52812187042073,"sku":null,"price":32.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0928\/2417\/4873\/files\/IMG-3615.jpg?v=1783727597","url":"https:\/\/capesandcrepes.com\/products\/ticket-to-ride-nederland-map-collection-4","provider":"Capes and Crepes Board Game Cafe","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
