Inns and Cathedrals really is a superb addition to the basic Carcassonne set. It adds a lot more options for playing the game without overly complicating the rules or adding radically different elements to the game. Certainly an expansion for family play, it is a less ruthless than some of the later releases.
You have a large meeple who counts double; inn and cathedral tiles that score more points for completed roads and cities respectively, but only if they are finished before the game ends. There is also an extra set of meeples for a sixth player and tokens to denote 50 and 100 points scored.
Small additions that really add to the enjoyment of the game.

This makes the original carcassonne so much more enjoyable and also strategic. I usually only play with my partner and this addition makes the game much better when only two are playing and now we never play without. I would advise that people get used to the scoring for the original before adding this expansion as spotting everything that increases your score is tricky if you are not used to it.

We own the basic game of Carcassonne, The River 1 and 11 and now the Inns and Cathedrals expansion. We have played a few times with this expansion and are just getting used to it as it really does change the game in that any uncompleted roads which have inns on them, score you nothing at the end of the game and also any uncompleted cities with the cathedral tiles in score you nothing at the end of the game. However, if you do complete these roads and cities you get double points for the roads and triple points for the cities. I would personally recommend you play the basic Carcassonne game until you are used to it, especially the scoring. Then start playing with the River expansion, the River 11 and then next this expansion. We would definitley recommned this expansion for those who want the basic Carcassone game to be more challenging. We find the game takes longer with the expansion not only because of the extra tiles of course but because there are more things to consider before laying a tile so demands more thinking time!

A hit with both my grandchildren and me
My grandchildren live near Carcassonne so it seemed a great game to link with the area. It is pretty straightforward to play and the skill comes in the scoring. Read more

Good Addition
This add on is worth the money. It allows for more players and/or a bigger game. It also adds new ways to score during the game.
