Padge Plays! Indie Edition - Carcassonne (2017 - Asmodee Digital) - Digital Board Game
5Welcome to Padge Plays! Indie Edition
In this episode we are playing the digital rendition of the award winning tile and tactics game Carcassonne by Asmodee Digital and Frima Studio! Over the years I have started to expand my collection of board games from the usual fare of Monopoly and Uno to more diverse and interesting games like Pandemic and Betrayal at House on the Hill and although this is one of the games I have kept my eye on I have never taken the dive on it for two reasons: 1 - It is expensive to buy & 2 - It looked boring! I then managed to pick this up for free on one of Epic Store's free game giveaways and I can honestly say I was pleasantly surprised!
Carcassonne is a tile based game for 2 to 5 players and the aim is to make as many complete roads and cities as you can. You also have meeples which are used to claim the different parts of the board to gain points within the game and at the end once the tiles have run out. As I'm still relatively new at this game this isn't the best playthrough I've manged to have as soon as that record button is pressed luck doesn't seem to go in my favour!
So join me as we go on a road to nowhere to a city with no name in Carcassonne Digital Edition!
- ABOUT THE GAME -
A TILE PLACEMENT GAME OF CREATING LANDSCAPES, CLAIMING AREAS, AND GAINING POINTS
Carcassonne is a modern classic tile-placement game based on the award wining game in which the players draw and place a tile with a piece of southern French landscape on it. The tile might feature a city, a road, a cloister, grassland or some combination thereof, and it must be placed adjacent to tiles that have already been played, in such a way that cities are connected to cities, roads to roads, et cetera. The player can then decide to place one of his followers, so called Meeples, on one of the areas on it: on the city as a knight, on the road as a robber, on a cloister as a monk, or on the grass as a farmer. When that area is complete, that meeple scores points for its owner. Each new game is a new experience thanks to the ever-changing landscape.
ENJOY FUN AND TACTICAL GAMEPLAY
During a game of Carcassonne, players are faced with decisions like: "Is it really worth putting my last meeple there?" or "Should I use this tile to expand my city, or should I place it near my opponent instead, making it harder for him to complete his goal and score points?" Since players place only one tile and have the option to place one meeple on it, turns proceed quickly even if it is a game full of options and possibilities.
