Description
You will develop medieval walled cities, roads, fields and cloisters as you play this game. Each turn you draw a tile, match it somewhere on the board, and choose if you want your followers to work on that tile. It's an easy game to pick up, but a hard one to become good at.

I find this game a little more on the luck side. This is because every turn you draw a piece at random. and it decides you move great game for 2-3 people. Once you get more I recommend other games.

This is a great game that combines simplicity,strategy, and low stress level. I find it to be a great alternative to Settlers when I don't feel like ruining a friendship or a marriage.

Very simple and relaxed game. The game can be somewhat political, so be aware of that element. I have yet to play any of the expansion, but I do look forward to doing so.

Carcassonne is a fantastic game for a smallish group. Fairly easy to learn, but very difficult to master. Many expansions available for further gameplay additions.

A true classic in modern board gaming. It takes minutes to learn, but a long time to master. One of the best 2 player games there is. Tons of strategy at play, as the board it different each playthoug

I like that this game has different "levels" of expertise. You can learn it quickly, but start to understand the deeper strategy later on. Even when you understand it, its not easy to always win it!

Great casual game with a good mix of strategy and luck. Plays well with two players and has a definite end (run out of tiles), which both are big pluses. We still have fun even after many plays.
