Does this game require that the players know English? Thank you.

Instructions are in several languages. City names are ancient, not the modern names, so that would be interesting.

The game does not necessarily require you to know English. The directions come in 4 different languages. English, German, and Spanish for sure. I don't recall the last one. Check out the Ticket to Ride website for more details.

I think it is the success of this game, you need the minimal English or nothing; you can buy it and find the Manual Instructions in internet in your language.The 95% of the cards to play don have text and only the " Destiny - Tickets" have text that correspond to names of the cities (Source and destination). Also you can find some video tutorials in your language to learn to play ... this game is extremely easy to learn to play and the favorite of my mother in law. Highly recommended.

I live in Brazil; thus, my friends and I speak portuguese, and only about 2/3 of us speak English, too. We've been playing this game for over a year, and even non-English speakers get the hang of the game just fine, after we explained and test-played the game once. Since you're talking about an elderly lady, you might find it useful to write down in your native language the effects of all the buildings, leaving to her only the trouble of memorizing the basic game rules, which you can easily explain in your language. This is a great game, with little luck and lots of strategy - it's worth an effort to make it work with your friends and relatives! I hope this helps!

No. Sadly, the game has no subtitles at all. If you are hard of hearing, it's a definite struggle, as there is a lot of dialogue and it can be an issue if full attention isn't being paid.

Not that I know of. U will need to purchase a version with the language of your choice

no :/ it's all in japanese.. You will have to learn the language (me included) before you can play. Personally i learned the instructions through chihayafuru, the anime. I also found an interesting link with the them here though: http://karuta.game.coocan.jp/detailedrule-e.html

No. I checked our game, and the instructions are English only. Perhaps you could contact the company and see if a translation is available.

It does have some english words here and there but not many. Still there is no issue navigating the menus and once the game starts there really is no need to read anything. If you do need to understand something there are a lot of places online which have most of the missions translated and an explanation of how to play the game (since the in-game tutorial doesn't help too much). Don't let the language barrier stop you from buying this game, it is very easy to get the hang of it but hard to master (just like all the other arcade games out there).I'd recommend to look at this before starting since it has a lot of useful information:http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=453197 It does have some english words here and there but not many.

Everything's in english. When characters talk there are subtitles because when they talk they sound like their talking in a whole new language ( its not Japanese) its kind of a mumbling sound.

I bought this game as a gift in April and played it when it was brought over to my house. It must have had instructions in English because my friend never mentioned any problem with the directions.

yes. When you fist start the game, it asks you which language for the text and then which language for the Audio. The subtitles are on by default (for me it was) and I chose English Audio. Also, no matter which language you choose for the audio, the subtitles are exactly what the englsih dub voices say. Btw I'm pretty sure u can still change it in the settings

This looks like one of the other country versions. This game is available in English, as well as a few other languages i believe.

I find the language packages that I cannot read- but have to rely on someone else to read and pronounce- kind of difficult. (like this and the Russian). So, probably not.
