Drake says: "TransAmerica is very simple railway game. Each player has a set of 5 cities strung across the United States that need to be connected by rail. Players may place either 1 or 2 rails each turn. The player who can make the best use of the other players' networks is generally victorious." |

John says: "TransAmerica is very light and entertaining. This game is truly a gateway game. It has a similar them to Ticket To Ride, but requires use of other players' rail placements. This is an excellent family game for new players and seasoned gamers." |

I think it is a good game to have in a collection. It's not the most complex of games, but that's its charm. The game works well with 2-6 players which is nice for those big groups. The game has flaws, there's a fair bit of luck, but it isn't meant to be a super strategic game. It's simpler than Ticket to Ride, so if you think Ticket is too simple, don't bother with this. I like Ticket better, but I still think TransAmerica is worth owning.
