FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What about more Expansions?
We are continuing to work on further expansions. Please don't hesitate to tell us which one you'd like to see next!
Can I play asynchronously?
Yes. In "Play with Friends" you can leave the app and will be notified when it's your turn again. No pressure though, unlike "Quick Play" there are no time limits.
Can I play against my familiy or friends by passing the device around?
Yes, of course. Up to five players can play on the same device.
Do I need to buy the expansions to participate in a game with expansions?
If you are playing local network multiplayer you can share an expansion with your opponents. To play online multiplayer, you need to buy the expansion to play with it.
Can I play with expansions in quick play?
Yes. However currently we restrict the options to either none or both of the expansions in quick play to avoid fragmentation of the player base and longer waiting times for games.

Customer Reviews
Great implementation
This is a faithful translation of carcassonne. I was introduced to this game by a wonderful woman and have spent ours playing... Any chance of a hunters and gatherers expansion?
Fantastic
The app is a must have for any Carcassonne fan. I love playing with my family long distance. I can't wait for more expansions to come out. Great job developers.
Worth every penny.
