Thank you! I loved playing this game with friends in my country but haven't gotten to play it with anyone where I live nowadays. Now I can play Carcassonne again! It's on my bucket list to visit Carcassonne in France someday and then play this game while I'm there.
Yay 🥳 I had a similar reaction when I discovered this solo variant. And would also love to visit Carcassonne one day and play the game with the city in the background :) I wonder how much the tourism in Carcassonne has increased since this game was released….
You could have put that last tile 3 squares up and flipped it around to extend the game, and give a yellow meeple back.. you lose the 4 points by closing yellow's city, but it allows yellow to keep surviving.
28:30 why not place it three tiles up so that both city and road belong to yellow and you do not have to place a meeple? You did end game scoring wrong way. Rules say: "You receive 2 points per meeple on tiles. Those points can, however, also only be scored if the respective colour of the meeple has the least number of points on the scoreboard. Here, too you can decide in which order you want to conduct the scoring."
Excellent. Many thanks for producing this video. It has really helped, especially with such descriptive commentary.
Why thank you :)
I’m glad it was helpful.
Thank you for this video. I recently read the game play for a solo game, but I found them confusing. Seeing a playthrough makes much more sense now :)
Thank you :)

I reached the same realization and it bothers me so much :)
11: 40 you forgot to count the end of the Road so instead of 6 point you should have 7 point
When you finished the first city, you counted 10 points. There were only 3 tiles plus 1 shield that should be 8 points in total??
That is correct. Well spotted.
What year is this specific box? Mine didn't look at good as yours...I think mine is older
This is the 2014 edition, which introduced the new art style.
And a new edition has just been released this year (2022) with even prettier art.
@@ThatBoardGameShow oh goodness! Thank you so much! 😍
