Single Player: 1-4
Online Multiplayer: 2-5

_____________________

King for a Day - 15G

Simply win 1 Ranked game to unlock this achievement. To get this achievement try you best in gaining an edge in the very beginning of the game. Don't be shy to grab some Farm land, and be sure to play tactical. If you can grab your opponents castle go for it. If you can't take over your opponents castle at least try to share it so you both get score points.

Top Of The Heap - 20G

Win a Player Match against 3 or more opponents. The Best way to unlock this Achievement is to get three of your friends together, and play against each other. Ask them to help you build roads, and massive castles. This will get your score well above your friends, and will secure your victory at the end of the game.

Metropolis - 25G

Score a City with 9+ tiles in a Player Match vs. 2 or more opponents. Once again try to play against your friends. If there is already an existing castle try to add more pieces to it. Soon you will have a master piece at your disposal!

Lord of Carcassonne - 25G

Defeat an opponent in a PLayer Match by 50+ points. To gain this Achievement your going to have to get an early lead. Taking opponents castles, and making large roads should put you in a hefty lead. Remember to at least share castles, and roads if you cannot take over them.

Mirror Monk - 25G

Score 2 adjacent (Side by Side) Monasteries in Single Player. Ok, this can be a tough achievement to get, but if you do what I tell you then you shouldn't have a problem. When going for this achievement you want to make sure you have room for the two Monasteries. You must surround both monasteries with board tile pieces so they are activated. Just simply placing the two next to each other won't unlock the achievement. The easiest way I found for unlocking this achievement is to play against just one CPU character. This will give you more chances of grabbing the needed monastery. Remember to be patient, have fun, and take your time.

Count of Carcassonne - 20G

Score 150+ points in a Single Player game. For this achievement playing against just one CPU is the way to go. The CPU is generally not that competitive when you play against them, and they will generally help you build castles. Take advantage of that situation by stealing the CPUs castes, roads, and you should grab this achievement in no time.

Rack Up The Points - 10G

Score 50+ points in Single Player. This Achievement is rather simple, and only requires you to gain 50 points total in Carcassonne.

Farm Boy - 10G

Score a Farm supplying 4+ Cities in Single Player. Only thing you need to do here is to make sure that there are 4 castles on the farm land you are taking. Its rather simple, and shouldn't give you much trouble.

Big City - 5G

Score a City with 3+ tiles in Single Player. Simply make a castle containing three pieces, and you have your achievement.

King of the Road - 5G

Score a road with 5+ tiles in Single Player. Simply make a road that contains 5 tiles, and Achievement Unlocked!

Top Score - 15G

Score a total of 2,000+ points from all your Carcassonne games combined. This Achievement isn't really hard, but is time consuming. Your best bet though is to keep playing Single Player. Play against 1 CPU, and score as many points as you can. Keep doing this, and you should have this achievement in or around 25 games.

Ultimate Score - 25G

Score a total of 5,000+ points from all your Carcassonne games combined. This has to be the hardest/easiest achievement to gain. Your going to have to play a good 50+ games to unlock this achievement, but if you stick to playing Single player you will gain this achievement a lot quicker then you would in multiplayer. Again play against 1 CPU, and take advantage of every move it makes. Play tactical an you should rack up at least 150+ points a game. Overall simply have patients.

This is my first achievement guide I have ever done. So I hope this helps anyone who is having troubles with this game. I'm currently replaying through this game again so I thought I would share my tactics with all of you. Thanks have a great day! Happy Gaming!
