Ticket to Ride, Michigan

Ticket to Ride Michigan is a one of a kind board game created by a local Michigan resident. With the help of Adobe Illustrator he created the game board using the State map of Michigan. Once the base map layer was established he highlighted major major city locations and added the transportation routes between them. After several revisions the enhanced map files were sent to PrintPlayGames for printing on four 12″ x 18″ sections. While waiting for the game board to arrive, he created game’s route tickets were by hand drawing and assembling them from glossy card stock picked up at a locate teaching supply store. Finally, to celebrate Michigan’s heritage, tiny cars were purchased to use in place of the original game’s train pieces.
