MacWorld - Who knew that quaint French towns could become the inspiration for addictive strategy games? The board game Carcassonne, named after a town in Southern France and designed by Klaus-Jürgen Wrede, is a huge hit in Europe. I’d never heard of it before I started playing the iOS version, but in the end it didn’t matter—even this American found playing it to be a thoroughly delightful experience.
The Humble Asmodee Digital Play With Friends Bundle is out now. It features The Lord of the Rings Adventure Card Game, Splendor, Mysterium, Small World 2, Carcassonne, and more.
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.
