Carcassonne is Getting a Special Winter Edition Later This Month

The weather outside is turning frightful, and it's not faring much better in whatever land Carcassonne is set in. But the indigenous meeples' loss is our gain as TheCodingMonkeys plan to release Carcassonne Winter Edition this month.

The expansion includes a secretive new character (maybe a yeti? I'll go with yeti. I know the image file is called "gingerbreadman." I'm still calling it a yeti), new cards, a "new gameplay mechanic" (most likely tied in with what I'll continue to assume is a yeti), and tons of snow. Seriously, there's snow everywhere in the Winter Edition. Even on the buttons and menus.

We don't know how much the Winter Edition expansion will cost, but if previous expansions are any indication it's probably going to be between $0.99 and $2.99. Carcassonne Winter Edition will be available as an in-app purchase on December 17.
