Carcassonne Big Box 5

Carcassonne Big Box 5

Players build a medieval landscape by drawing and placing square tiles showing cities, roads, cloisters and fields, connecting edges so features match. After placing a tile, a player may deploy a meeple to claim a feature as a knight, robber, monk or farmer; completed features score points and meeples return to the player. Turns are quick—one tile and an optional meeple each turn—while placement choices create tactical and strategic decisions about expanding personal features or interfering with opponents. This edition collects the base game plus several expansions that add new tiles, special pieces and scoring twists, and supplies two additional sets of colored meeples.

    It's a very interesting Big Box. The sheeps expansion was my favorite (and the wheel of fortune my least). It's the only Carcassonne box that allows 8 players(I recommend playing with expansions when there are 5+ players).

    El juego de colocación de losetas por excelencia. Rapidísimo de preparar y muy fácil de jugar: roba una loseta, colócala y pon un meeple en ella si quieres. Hay mucho más puteo del que parece a simple vista.
