Why it works

You collect coloured cards to claim stretches of track and link the cities on your tickets. The rules are cut down from the grown-up game, so a six-year-old can manage it alone after a couple of games. Along the way they pick up where Paris, Vienna and Moscow are.

Our verdict

A very good Reyes (Three Kings) gift for ages six to nine. If what you want is strategy with resources and trading, look at Catan Junior.
