Pretty simple to explain. One of my favorite games, but the meeple shape of the box is horrible. It will separate within a month. Buy the standard edition.

Buy this game. It is a great game, pretty simple. I wish I had games like this growing up instead of the mindlessness of games like Sorry and trouble. It is a great game where you build roads, towns, and claim fields. Pretty simple to play and understand.

I got the 10th Anniversary Special Edition for Christmas and love it. We have now played 3 games and cant stop playing. I had played Carcassone at a friends boardgame night but this edition is gorgeous: it is smaller, more compact and has plenty of room for all the times plus 2-3 expansions. The player pieces are colorful crystal. I highly recommend this game for anyone who enjoys strategic games without complex, bulky rules. This game will become a staple for board game night at our home.
