Anecdotally, I can tell you that the original Ticket to Ride game has racked up 69 games for me to date, the vast majority of which were 2 player games with my wife.

You can also try out the game system at ticket2ridegame.com to see what you think, though the Nordic variant isn't available.
Oh, don't get me wrong - I enjoy me a good game of Ticket to Ride. And I"m considering this off and on.

But I've already got three copies of T2R, and it sounds like this is $50 to buy all the pieces again, with just the rules and the board different? That just strikes me as pricey for a two-player game. If anything else, you'ld think it would be cheaper because they don't have to make as many of the little plastic trains.
