Carcassonne

Description

If you're a fan of the Carcassonne series, you'll love the added twist that Carcassonne: The Watchtowers brings to the classic game. This expansion, designed by Klaus-Jürgen Wrede and released in 2016, introduces 12 new tiles that feature watchtowers, which can be shuffled in with the original land tiles to create fresh and exciting gameplay experiences. With its easy-to-learn rules, Carcassonne: The Watchtowers is perfect for players of all skill levels, and can be enjoyed by 2 to 6 players in just 30 to 45 minutes. When you draw a tile with a watchtower, you place it according to the usual rules, and then you can place a meeple on the tile, just like you would on a regular city, road, or farm. However, you can't place a meeple directly in the watchtower - instead, you'll use it to score bonus points when a road or city is completed. Each watchtower tile gives one of five different bonuses, adding a new layer of strategy to the game. For example, you might use a watchtower to earn extra points for a completed city, or to block your opponents from scoring. Farmers, on the other hand, don't get any points from watchtowers, so you'll need to think carefully about where to place your meeples. As an expansion for the base Carcassonne game or the 20th Anniversary Edition, Carcassonne: The Watchtowers offers a fun and challenging way to mix up your gameplay experience. With its simple yet strategic gameplay, it's a great addition to any Carcassonne fan's collection. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, Carcassonne: The Watchtowers is a great way to add some excitement and variety to your game nights, and its short playtime makes it perfect for fitting in a quick game with friends or family.
