Product Description

Product Description

The tent has been pitched outside of town and the performers are ready to thrill the crowd with their death-defying stunts. A new world of excitement awaits in under the big top, the Tenth expansion for award-winning tile-laying game Carcassonne. Capturing the thrill of the circus, this expansion incorporates twenty new land tiles and two new follower types into the Carcassonne library. Players can use them to attract people from all over the countryside to view their menagerie of animals or witness their feats of death-defying skill. Just like the daring risks that circus performers take, under the big top gives players plenty of opportunities to score big points they can draw in the crowds!

Set Contains:

1 x Rulebook
20 x Land Tiles
12 x Circus Tiles
8 x Acrobat Tiles
16 x Animal Tokens
1 x Big Top Token
6 x Ringmaster Meeples

Great Expansion. Misprint. Shipping Damage.
I love this twist to the classic game of Carcassonne, this expansion is so much fun and allows for some huge points to be scored. The theming is really fun my wife and I always use this expansion when playing.Issues with ProductMy first complaint is with how the box arrived (see photo). As a board game enthusiast and a collector I want my products in pristine condition. However on arrival the box was very damaged. Luckily the product inside was unharmed. It’s not a huge deal overall, just an annoyance when your paying money for something that’s meant to be stored in the box it arrives in.The second issue I have with this product is the tiles backs don’t match my base set. (See photo) Both made by Z-Man games. I order this expanded not long after getting the base game so there wasn’t hardly any wear to effect the coloring.

    Easy to understand mechanisms, same quality pieces and artwork... it's a seriously solid expansion. Really gives you reasons to play differently than you might otherwise. Super looking forward to trying this one added into a mega-game.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great addition to the original game
    Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2020
    Size: ExpansionsStyle: Under the Big Top ExpansionVerified Purchase
    We love the original Carcassonne, and had wanted to add an expansion, but had no idea where to start. Under the Big Top was on sale for a great price, so I couldn't resist. It adds 3 new circus-themed elements. The acrobats are ok, in my opinion, and the ringmaster meeple can be helpful, but our favorite is definitely the actual big top circus tent itself. Every time a circus tile comes up, you put one of the tiny animal tiles upside-down underneath, so you don't see its value. Then, the next time a circus tile comes up, the traveling circus moves to the next tile, and the animal piece is revealed, with points from 1 (ant) to 7 (elephant). Any meeples on adjacent tiles score however many points are on that animal piece. It's such a fun element, especially for my kids (4, almost 7, and 10), who are all so excited to see if the high-scoring elephant will be hiding. This game expansion is great for adults and kids. Glad it was the first expansion we decided to buy.

    Size: ExpansionsStyle: Under the Big Top ExpansionVerified Purchase
    We are big fans of Carcassonne in our house, and we were quite pleased with this expansion. It adds about 10-15 minutes of extra game play. The game pieces are cute (my daughter loves the ring master meeple) and are easy to add into the base game. We crack up every time we move a circus tent to find the Flea Circus tile and cheer whenever the Elephant is discovered. The acrobats and circus tents encourage more cooperative play as you follow the tent around the map. Highly recommend!

    We found the instructions kinda confusing and hard to figure out, we kinda made our own interpretation of them and played it how we thought best. Once we did that we really enjoyed the expansion to the game.

    This is my far my favorite expansion, and I have almost all of them! (Mainstream ones anyway). Follow the bouncing red ball! LoL that's the mantra my friend came up with for chasing the big top tent. This one is great by itself (with the base game) as well as adding to multiple expansions together.

    I was worried this would add too many tokens and stuff but it’s actually great! The big top mechanic is really fun with a hint of gambling tossed in and the extra meeple is also great for bigger gamer. The acrobats didn’t get used much when we tried it but we had 4 full expansions going. They do seem like they are also a decent new mechanic.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent game play expansion, despite the new tile style of Z-Man games
    Reviewed in Canada on November 21, 2017
    Size: ExpansionsStyle: Under the Big Top ExpansionVerified Purchase
    The game design itself it great. The animal tokens and the new expansion make for very interesting game play scenarios. I had the original Rio Grande Games version of the base Carcassonne game and original expansions so the tiles are a bit of a different style now with Z-Man games producing the game. All in all, great addition.
