Days of Wonder has released a new digital version of their award-winning game Ticket to Ride for Amazon’s Kindle Fire tablet. Days of Wonder’s updated app incorporates Amazon’s new Mobile Associates API for in-app purchasing of physical goods, providing customers a new kind of immersive retail experience where they can acquire the tabletop board game while playing the digital version, and have their purchase delivered directly to their doorstep. Days of Wonder brings together their top-rated sales in both physical and digital gaming for this five-star rated game that is a consistent seller in Amazon’s Toys & Games Store.

Exclusively on the Kindle Fire, customers can also purchase physical versions of Ticket to Ride and any of its numerous expansions, from directly within the app and have the corresponding physical game delivered straight to their homes. To celebrate the launch of this feature that ties the digital and cardboard versions of the game together, the Kindle version of Ticket to Ride even includes some new custom wooden score markers for the board game, that customers can purchase with a single tap from within the app.

Customers can find Ticket to Ride for Kindle Fire here. Digital versions of Ticket to Ride are also available for iOS, Steam, and Google Play.
