No Dpad:
When I heard that Carcassonne was coming to the App Store I was elated. I must admit though that through my elation I learned that not too many people here in the US even knew what I was talking about. Lucky for me I own the original game, brought to me straight from Germany, its country of origin. For years I begged people to learn the intricacies of the game with me. Soon it was clear that I wasn’t ever going to have as many human players as I would need for a true game so I developed my own “solitaire” rules and played however I could. I broke out the game at family gatherings and I got to play a game or two. But much to my dismay it never quite caught on like some of our other family favorites and I was back to making my own fun with the 71 tiles and the ever simplistic Meeple.

Carcassonne and Ticket to Ride are free at Epic Games Store starting today and running until February 13 at 10 AM. Once you claim them, they’re yours to keep.
One good way to take your mind off the frightening Coronavirus news that seems to be everywhere these days is to settle in for a nice relaxing digital recreation of a great board game...like Pandemic. Fortunately, from February 6th through the 13th, you'll be able to download Pandemic, Carcassonne, and Ticket to Ride free from the Epic Games Store.
