Accessory Folded Space - Carcassonne & Expansions


Note: This is not a standalone product and you'll need the base game Carcassonne to play.

In this third major expansion for the prize-winning Carcassonne, we move into the realm of fantasy.

The land around Carcassonne is being visited by a dragon, making life very difficult for the followers. Brave heroes venture forth to face the danger, but without the aid of the fairies, their chances are not good.
In the city, the princess seeks help from the knights, and farmers build secret passages to move about undetected by the dragon.

Contents: 30 new tiles with dragon nests, volcanoes, magic gates, and princesses; 1 large wooden dragon; 1 wooden fairy. Contrary to original reports, there are no princess figures in The Princess & the Dragon.

Interesting expansion.

A more interactive expansion, best for 3+ players.

A regular addition in our plays. I'll break down the four components that this expansion adds:

The Dragon: An interesting take-that mechanic being added into the game. Suddenly, it's possible for your meeples to be removed from the board through bad planning/luck. Quite enjoyable, leads to a lot of fun "DAMN YOU" type moments. The big dragon meeple is excellent

The Fairy: a little white meeple that you can place onto any incomplete feature when you lay a tile without placing a meeple. You get one point at the beginning of your turn if the fairy is still on one of your features, and that feature is protected from the Dragon. That gets a bit fiddly and easy to forget, but it's not a huge issue. The biggest problem I have is that it's so easy to get a Dragon tile and place it without laying a meeple, and then you get to take the fairy away from an opponent before starting the dragon rampage. It's a bit frustrating, because it makes it hard to really plan against the dragon attack.

Princess tiles: When you place a princess tile into an incomplete city, you can remove any one meeple from that city. This can leave a city unoccupied, or help you obtain a majority. Pretty handy.

Portal tiles: They allow you to place a meeple into any unoccupied incomplete feature. Very cool.
