Carcassonne (WP) Release Date Finally Confirmed

Carcassonne (WP) Release Date Finally Confirmed

A selection of screenshots make an appearance as well

Written by KeithBGray on 09 October 12 at 23:44

All the way back in February, Microsoft announced that Exozet Games had been tasked with developing Carcassonne (WP) as an on-the-go port of the popular strategy title, Carcassonne.

After almost eight months of silence in relation to Carcassonne (WP), probably considering the best marketing strategy for the title, Microsoft has now revealed that the Windows Phone version will be available from October 24th.

The original announcement featured just a single screenshot, but the latest news is accompanied by no less than thirteen new images.

Still trying to get a handle on the rules in the XBLA version - but the WP would be a great platform for this game.

Hell yes! This was my 2nd 100% completion when I first activated my Live account. (Which was also the same week that Carcassonne was a free download.

Looking great. I had the pleasure of trying out the boardgame a while back. Would've liked to get the XBLA game, but it doesn't support local play.

Any word on whether the WP7 version has pass-and-play?

I don't know if I would be able to get into this game. I'll have to give the trial a go when it is released.

It is a very nice board game, and it translates fairly well to video game form. It's great that the game can keep track of the score for you.

But I agree with the above guy who was disappointed with the lack of local mode for the XBLA release. There was no excuse not to put it in, since there are no hands of cards or anything to keep secret like that. It would've fit perfectly.

Hopefully the WP version has pass and play.
