The Manufacturer's Board Game Review of Carcassonne: The Expansion:

The expansion offers all fans of Carcassonne new challenges: The Cathedral triples the value of a city, and the Inn doubles the value of a road - but only when they are completed. Players may use the new large follower to double their chances of controlling a city, road, or field. Also included is all necessary material to allow a sixth player to join in the fun.

Rainy Day Game's Board Game Review of Carcassonne: The Expansion:

First, let us say that if you don't have the original Carcassonne yet, stop everything else and buy it now. You're missing out on one of the best German board games on the market. Now, as soon as you've got that, make the game even better with this fantastic expansion set.

Carcassonne: The Expansion is really two expansions in one. First, it has everything required to add a sixth player to the game. Second, it contains new tiles and other pieces designed to improve on the original. Besides increasing the size of the board, the board game designers have carefully reviewed the original and tweaked the game to make it better balanced. For example playing one of your followers on a road was a relatively weak strategy, but Carcassonne: The Expansion increases the points for roads making the thief a more important part of the game.

That's just one example of how Carcassonne: The Expansion improves on the original. This expansion is simply more fun for more people. Why don't you have it yet?
