Carcassonne Bridges, Castles & Bazaars Board Game Expansion - New Paths and Auctions Await! Medieval Strategy Game for Kids and Adults, Ages 7+, 2-6 Players, 50 Minute Playtime, Made by Z-Man Games

Love it! Now it's even more interesting to play.

Wife and I play every night. Always something new in each game. Looking forward to adding more expansions.

This expansion is great, but I'd recommend other expansions before this one, like the count, king, and robber, which adds a lot more content to the game. I think it's good for folks who already own most of the expansions though.

We love this game and think this is a really great and easy expansion. Adds another level of fun without complicating the game too much. We have other expansions that just add too many steps but this isn’t one of them.

The bridges give players a chance to place tiles they wouldn't ordinarily be able to place. The castles add more opportunities to score points and add to the farmer/barn point total as well so players have to be very strategic in their placement. We actually give each player an extra meeple because of the castles. We don't use the bazaars (we ignore them on the tiles) because we usually play with a small number of people and our games are long enough as it is.

This adds three elements to the game on only 12 tiles, but it’s still worth it for what you get. The bazaar adds a significant amount of play time to your game. Basically setting up a mini game that can take as long as 30 minutes, if you’re playing with a full crew of 6 players. Bridges can get you out of a tight spot, though I rarely use them. Castles are my favorite part of this expansion! Great way to rack up lore points. If you’re an avid Carcassonne player I’d recommend it. If you’re a passive player who enjoys a quick 30 minute base game, probably not for you. You must own the base game to play.

Another great expansion pack for the Carcassonne main game. Bridges allow roads to continue over grass fields, castles make small towns more valuable, and the bazaars allow players to "bid" on tiles. All the new rules are super simple and easy to learn, the bazaar rules were the most complicated but after a couple tries we had it mastered! If you love Carcassonne as much as we do, you can't go wrong with this addition to your game!

As described expansion pack.
