Help: Identify a board game
We are working on a project at work and I thought of a board game that may help us ... problem is I can’t remember what it is called.
I saw it in an episode of TableTop.
Players play cards/tiles to build a path for their piece while trying to stop their opponents’ pieces.
I’ve been looking through the episode titles and cannot find it.
Help?

Had a game back in the 70’s.
A small plastic tarp on the floor and the pieces were little mushroom shaped and had a spring in it.
Push it down and it pops up and lands somewhere.
That’s all I remember.

Ticket to Ride
Settlers of Catan
Carcasonne
Have roads and railroads. Others probably do too, but they came up on a Game with roads search and have episodes.

This maybe? One of my cousins had this board game but I never played it.

Tsuro is the winner! Found it after I posted but was too tired to come back last night. Forgot about the whole dragon thing. I may have to check out the ocean/nautical one, too.
Thank you The Cow!

Re: Help: Identify a board game
So let me change this up just a bit ... how about suggestions of games that are along this same line?
My requirements:
1.) Goal is to get from point A to point B
2.) Cards or tiles are laid down to create a changing path
3.) May contain ways to change cards that are already laid down
Anything else is fair play!

Ticket to Ride is another popular one. The board is a map of a region (the U.S. in the base game), and players are given goals to connect different pairs of cities via rail. There are only limited places rails can be placed, so if I'm trying to connect L.A. to San Francisco and someone else grabs that route, I may need to go L.A. to Las Vegas to Salt Lake City to San Francisco.
