Ticket to Ride Marklin Collector’s Ed German Map (NEW SEALED) Days of Wonder

This is a brand spanking new, sealed, never opened, never played item. Note that there’s a crease type thing on the back of the box. I attached a picture. It sort of feels like a crease on the other hand I’m not sure if that’s just from original packaging as the side of the box shows no sign of any damage or anything. I’ve also seen this sort of marking/boxing on other listings for this game as well so not sure if it was once something with original packaging. Ticket to Ride: Märklin is the third installment in Days of Wonder’s best-selling boardgame series that has won 14 international game awards, including the prestigious Spiel des Jahres. The boardmap for the Märklin Edition is based on a map of Germany and introduces Passengers and Merchandise to the Ticket to Ride gameplay. Passengers are used to pick up merchandise worth different numbers of points along the routes that they claim. Varying stacks of merchandise tokens with different point values are placed next to the different cities on the map. Players can place one of their 3 Passenger tokens on any city along a route that they claim. On his game turn, the player can choose to then move one of his passengers from the city it currently occupies along any or all of his continuous routes, picking up Merchandise Tokens from each city he moves through. Of course he’ll all the time take the highest remaining tokens. The point total of the tokens is then added to his score. Other game play changes are the vertical orientation of the German map, and instead of a bonus for longest route, the 10 point bonus card goes to the player who completes the most Destination Tickets. Whilst boardgamers will not be familiar with the Märklin name, train hobbyists believe it the premier name in the model train world. This German company has been around for over 140 years and is the world’s leader in the miniature train hobby. Each train card in this edition will feature a different image (118 in all) of a Märklin model train car or locomotive.
