"Fantastic game - great for 2 players and even better with more"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Best game we have played as a couple – we started with the basic set. Then tried each extension. Found that the base and 2 of the extensions combined were great for 2 players but the other 3 extensions would be better with more players. Be warned – it is quite addictive. Really encourages strategic thinking and forward planning.

"everybody is into this one" Purchased on Mighty Ape

Great game easy to learn and have slowly added the other games which just keep changing the game- fantastic. So good that two more in the family have got there own games. Made christmas very exciting as we all looked forward to playing this in the afternoon.

"Quick to learn but with good depth"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Game is easy to learn and play can start quickly for all ages. Play is rapid and interactive so players out of turn do not get bored – though grater than 4 players may be a bit less active. The game has some strategy complexity – like when/where to deploy farmers – which can be learned as you go. With the expansion sets there is the ability to learn new variations and alter the tripe of play each time you play. Expansion sets work well individually and can be combined to give even longer or more complex games.

Great game for the whole family although with expansion sets the teenager and adult players will also be challenged.

"A great game with added playability"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I haven't been playing Carcassonne for long and decided to get my own copy to play with my 6yr old (who loves it). So what better way to go than to by the game with 5 expansions! Better still, the box is very well organised, with a compartment for each expansion.

Carcassonne as a base game is a fantastic and palable game, but each expansion gives a new bit of playability (my son loved removing my farmers and knights with the dragon from the ‘Princess and Dragon’ expansion.

If you enjoy Carcassonne and don't have a set (or your set is getting worn out), definitely consider the Big Box.

"Makes a really good game better." Purchased on Mighty Ape

The added expansions make the game much better as there are so many new variables. You can include all or some of the expansions, depending who you are playing with.

"Great Game for all to play"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

We really like the game. We have today played the first expansion of Inns and Cathedrals. Time takes about 1 hour to play. Will continue to play the other expansions.

"Hours and hours of fun"
5 stars"

I'ld played Carcasonne before, but after watching Wil Weaton play on Youtube's TableTop with the boyfriend I knew I had to get it. I decided to go for the big box to add some more play ability. We are 3 expansions in and the game is becoming more and more complex, and I keep losing (I've only won once). Buy, play, enjoy.

"My table is not big enough"
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Carcassonne is a very interesting game, and the expansions keep it interesting once you have mastered the basic game. The only problem is, the game takes up so much space & you can never predict what direction the tiles will take you.

I recommend playing on the floor, or on a giant table.

My 12 year old thinks it's better than X-Box! What else is there to say-
