While The Settlers of Catan still holds its place as my favorite board game of all time, Carcassonne has definitely made some gains on my list. Honestly, a major reason that I like it is the way the board looks as you build it. It's a pretty easy game to learn, but it takes a while to master it. While several expansions that change the nature of the game in subtle but interesting ways, this game has the capacity to hold a family's attention for quite a while.
And there's another thing I like about the game: my family likes playing it. Each game is relatively short, so we can get in a couple of games at sitting (the expansions usually make the game a bit longer). While I know that this sounds like an advertisement, it's not meant as such. This game has become a part of what my family and I do, so I wanted to share it.
