Description

Making the world of Carcassonne even more exciting, here comes a travelling circus! When a circus tile is drawn, a random animal is placed beneath the tent. As it moves around the board, adjacent followers earn points. Players may also construct "human pyramids using followers and place Ringmasters as special followers.

Publisher's Description of Carcassonne: Under the Big Top Expansion #10

The tent has been pitched outside of town and the performers are ready to thrill the crowd with their death-defying stunts. A new world of excitement awaits in Under the Big Top, the tenth expansion for award-winning tile-laying game Carcassonne. Capturing the thrill of the circus, this expansion incorporates twenty new Land tiles and two new follower types into the Carcassonne library. Players can use them to attract people from all over the countryside to view their menagerie of animals or witness their feats of death-defying skill. Just like the daring risks that circus performers take, Under the Big Top gives players plenty of opportunities to score big points if they can draw in the crowds!

Category Description for Carcassonne

Revisit the medieval city of Carcassonne, France in this land development game. Players attempt to strategically place a randomly drawn land tile in such a way as to fashion a city, road, cloister or field. Each player has 7 followers that can act as knight, thief, monk, or farmer, depending on their placement. Larger roads and cities score more points when completed, and multiple players can share in the scoring of a multi-tile completed project. This is definitely a thinking game and will take playing a few times to get the strategy down. Games take about 45 minutes. 2-5 players.
