Rio Grande Re-Releasing Lower Priced Carcassonne: the City

Oct 29, 2010

Originally released in a wooden box, thus increasing it’s price, Carcassonne: the City is to be re-released by Rio Grande Games in a much more price friendly format; the new edition will occupy a more standard cardboard box. No word yet on what the pricing will be though.

From Rio Grande:

The impressive city of Carcassonne was a magnet for tourists from all lands even in the middle ages. Its large markets, grandiose homes, and busy streets made the whole city a popular attraction. Here is your chance to build the city of Carcassonne! Players build walls, build towers, found markets, and place followers in the normal way. At the end, you will all enjoy looking at the beautiful 3-D city you have built!

This spin off of the immensely popular Carcassone series is one of the better received. In it, up to four players cooperate to complete the city while still striving to finish with the most points to be declared the winner.
