Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions vs Ticket to Ride
Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions
Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions is a turn-based strategy/RPG spin-off from the main Final Fantasy franchise. The original Final Fantasy Tacitcs was very well-received back when it was first released. Due to this, the Square Enix has had the game revamped and we get a sequel of sorts as a result. The original game has not only been ported to the mobile platform, it also features all of the new improvements you'd expect, including better cinematics, new characters, more than 20 job classes and extra missions. You can play the game alone or with a friend via its co-op mode as well.Final Fantasy Tactics was one of the best spin-offs for the Final Fantasy franchise and Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions did a good enough job to not disappoint. It might be buggy from time to time, but it's still the favorite game you knew.
Ticket to Ride
Ticket to Ride is a family-favorite board game that's set in the glorious age of big trains and engines - during the railroad boom of the 18th century. In this game, you'll need to claim routes using train cards and the limited number of train cars you have, while completing as many tickets as you can. To claim a route, you'll need to use train cards of the corresponding color, though there are some exceptions to the rules, such as gray routes and wild Locomotive cards.The very strategic, turn-based gameplay mainly centers around competing with the other players in the match to claim routes that you need. If someone else claimed a route you planned on taking, then you'll have no choice but to find an alternative route, which will cost you more time and resources (train cards). However, that's actually where the fun of the game lies. You don't know what routes your opponents planned on taking and sometimes, you may be forced to adapt to the evolving situation and find another way to get to the station you need.
This digitized version of Ticket to Ride doesn't differ much from its physical/original version and that's a plus for fans of the board game. It has multiple game modes and expansions (at a cost though) as well, giving players the chance to compete with other players across the globe and more maps to play on. If you enjoy a solid strategy board game, Ticket to Ride is a game you'll want to try!
