In this expansion for the prize-winning Carcassonne, we move into the realm of fantasy. The land around Carcassonne is being visited by a dragon, making life very difficult for the followers. Brave heroes venture forth to face the danger, but without the aid of the fairies, their chances are not good. In the city, the princess seeks help from the knights, and farmers build secret passages to move about undetected by the dragon. (from the back of the box)

Carcassonne: the Princess and the Dragon contains 30 new tiles, 1 wooden dragon, 1 wooden fairy, and rules. This expansion requires the original Carcassonne game to play. The Princess and the Dragon is for 2 to 6 players ages 8 and up. It plays in an average of 30 to 45 minutes.
