This expansion for the Carcassonne base game introduces new strategic elements to enhance gameplay. It includes 24 additional land tiles with updated landscape features, such as roads with bridges that do not function as junctions. The expansion also adds new follower types—the builder and pig—along with Goods tokens, providing players with more ways to score points. The builder accelerates construction, while the pig and Goods tokens offer alternative scoring opportunities, including bonus points for the player with the most goods at the end of the game.
A linen bag is included for easier tile storage and drawing. The expansion maintains the core mechanics of Carcassonne while increasing replayability through varied tile combinations and strategic options. Compatible with other expansions, this set requires the base game to play. Average playtime remains at 45 minutes. Designed for 2-5 players, it suits both newcomers and experienced players.
Things to Keep in MindA recurring concern among users is inconsistent tile printing, including misaligned or off-color pieces, which can impact usability or visual consistency. Additionally, some players felt the new mechanics altered gameplay, making it less strategic or diluting the experience. Why You'll Like ItThis expansion introduces new game mechanics, such as builders and pigs, that many players find add engaging twists and enhance gameplay, with the tiles generally aligning well with the base set.
