Carcassonne DS

An Xbox Live arcade game made portable!

If you’ve played the Xbox Live game, this one plays the exact same way. A turn base puzzle game where every turn a player is given a random road, castle wall, or abbey piece. After placing a piece you are given the option to place a follower. The goal is to complete roads and castles with pieces your followers are occupying.

Graphically it’s a step down. It’s not horrible but the images are kinda fuzzy and just meh. Game play itself is pretty smooth, all controls are done through the stylus. You can rotate pieces in the top right corner and then drag n drop to the location of your choice. The computer player takes a moment to process it’s move but overall the wait times are not that bad.

If you were a fan of previous Carcassonne games this if fun as well and with the added bonus of portability.
