“A great beginner friendly game that doesn't take too long to learn and has a simple turn sequence. The scoring can seem complex at first but you'll soon find yourself having no problems with it. Once you've played the original game to death (a distinct possibility, it's just that good), there are plenty of expansions out there to mix up the experience, so you can pick and choose which you like the look of.”

“We’ve playing this every day since getting it! A week ago…. Scoring seemed complicated at first glance but now we’ve got it easy- also just nice to play without scoring…as luck of the draw involved too means youngsters aren’t at too much of a disadvantage. Great intro into into more complex games- can’t wait to get expander sets! So seven year old happy to play…”

“I have a special love for Carcassonne. It was the first game that really got me into the hobby, and I still love it to this day. It is a simple game of laying tiles down to grow cities, roads, and fields, claiming them and scoring them. There is more thinking involved than you first imagine, especially when trying to muscle in on opponents’-controlled areas. The best part about this game is seeing the sprawling map unfold during the game whilst you build it out tile by tile. Great game. Always highly recommend this one. It is definitely improved by some of the expansions however. Absolute pillar in the board game hobby.”

“The royalty of all time placement board games, with a loving community and an endless amount of expansions. One of my favourite games of all time, and a must have for game nights.”

“Carcassonne is the game that is most often billed as making gamers. At the start of the game rather than a board, you have an empty table. During the game you take turns placing out tiles in order to build up the landscape with cities, rivers, fields and monasteries. This is one of the first games that showed me that not everything was like monopoly, cluedo and uno. This is a simple to pick up game, with some options to make the rule set a bit easier on the brain for younger or newer gamers. On your turn you draw a tile from the face down pile and place it adjacent to a tile already on the board. You must match the terrains, so roads must match with other roads, fields with fields and cities with cities. Afterwards you may place a meeple of your colour out onto one of the features on the tile, which will score you points. As roads, fields, monasteries and cities are completed, they will score you points if you have claimed them. There are a bazillion expansions for this game, but I think if you buy this version which contains the river and the abbot then that is a year or more of playing without ever getting stale. This is a staple that can be brought out at any time.”
