Kings and Barons Invade Carcassonne

Oct 03, 2007 5:21pm CST tags: Xbox Live Marketplace, Carcassonne
The third expansion pack for Sierra Online's digital version of Klaus-Jürgen Wrede's board game Carcassonne arrived on Xbox Live Marketplace today. As its title suggests, The King and Baron Expansion Pack adds the king and robber baron characters to Carcassonne, in addition to five new tiles, and is available for 300 Microsoft Points ($3.75).

Carcassonners with the expansion enabled will receive a King icon next to their avatar, while players with the longest roads get a Robber Baron caricature. Whichever player has either icon at the game's finish will receive bonus points.

The expansion, based on the board game's King and Scout expansion, arrives after the 12-tile River II expansion in August, also available for 300 Microsoft Points ($3.75), and the River expansion bundled with the full 800 Microsoft Point ($10) Carcassonne game.
