As Castles is a family favorite, we found the expansion somewhat disappointing. The main problem is that the moats just slow the game down too much. It's slow enough as is with the ordering of what to sell and then selection, but then restricting the size and positioning of everything just turns players into sloths. The swan thing is pretty tacked on and useless too. I suppose having new rooms is just "more of a good thing", but yeah, moats seem to make our games worse, not better.

Hold off and wait to see if Bezier Games grant a license to a foreign publisher to release a superior version with significantly improved artwork and bonus extras - like the core game of Castles of Mad King Ludwig. It is truly pathetic how Ted Alspach/Bezier Games have sold out, and allowed a far superior version WITH mini-expansion to be released (of that game), solely within one country who refuse to ship to anywhere else. That they remain silent, and let someone else produce a far better version of their own game, is rather telling... I wouldn't be surprised if the exact same happens with this.

所有してるのは日本語版。 まず一番うれしいのはなんといっても追加された部屋タイル。 それと外堀タイルね。 隠し通路は日本語ルールの訳が悪いのか、ルール把握がいまいちできない。 2019/11月売却
