Not all that long after launching Settlers, one of my clear boardgame faves hits the Xbox Arcade - Carcassonne; "the medieval countryside thrives as you and your opponents place tiles and complete towns, roads, and farms while competing to amass the most points"
More backgorund on the game itself or the actual place Carcassonne in the south of France - Wikipedia has it all and then some.
I think this game would be great for some multiplayer fun, so as soon as they get around to sharing the Elite version with us here in Europe - this is one game I'll give a shot (800 points works out to about $15 when bought here in retail- but $10 in the US...)
Always fun on a rainy day to see how the luck of the draw ends up shaping the size and number of cities actually built.
