STRATEGY GAME - PLAN YOUR WAY TO VICTORY: Develop the landscape of a medieval fortress city one tile at a time. Whether blocking a city's growth or connecting with your opponent’s road to share the points, Carcassonne provides plenty of ways to use your cunning and outsmart your opponents

ONE STEP AT A TIME TILE-PLACEMENT GAME: Players fill in the countryside around the medieval fortified city, choosing from tiles that depict cities, roads, monasteries, and fields; each new tile creates an ever-expanding board on which players can then add their followers

JACK OF ALL TRADES: Followers can take many different roles (knights, monks, farmers, or thieves) determined by the type of tile on which they're placed. Each role scores points differently, so you'll need careful planning to make the best use of your followers

HOW TO ACHIEVE VICTORY: Players score points by having followers on tiles as features are completed. The player who makes the most strategic placements of tiles and followers will score the most points and win the game

HIGH REPLAYABILITY: With its simple yet rich game mechanics and eighty-four tiles that can be configured into numerous combinations, Carcassonne appeals to beginners and veteran gamers alike. LOOKING FOR NEW ADVENTURES? Try our many expansions (Note: Expansions require Carcassonne Base Game to play). Average Playtime: 45 minutes

From the manufacturer
  
Inspired by the medieval fortress city of the same name, Carcassonne is a modern classic tile-laying game with easy-to-learn rules and endless strategy. 

  
Players take turns drawing and placing tiles to lay out the landscape of Carcassonne, placing meeples on the map as the medieval countryside grows. 

  
Score points throughout the game by claiming and completing various features, including roads, cities, fields, and monasteries. 

  
Place your tiles and meeples in clever ways to outscore your opponents. The player with the most points at the end of the game wins! 

  
The latest edition of Carcassonne includes 84 tiles that can be configured into countless combinations, including tiles from the original base game and The River and The Abbot expansions. 

  
With endless configurations of tiles, Carcassonne is infinitely replayable. Players can also add expansions with additional rules, new features, and different tiles to customize each game!

    Fantastic game. Once you’ve mastered the basics it’s well worth looking at the expansions (tip: look out for the non-English ‘big box’ versions for the best prices and just print out the English instructions).

    Is it just the box design that is different or are the tiles different?

    I was wondering if they will match the expansions fine.

    Thank you.

    This version matches the artwork of the expansion I have. I have an old version of the core game and it's a different style to my dragon expansion, which matches this newer one - the backs are all identical, so it doesn't actually pose a problem when playing.

    Is this still good for two players or do you really need more?

    I usually play two, sometimes three - it's great for both. It's a fairly light / tactical game but if you want more depth or a longer play time, just add a couple of expansions.

    This game is on regular rotation at my house, along with the addons. The kids also absolutely love playing the kids version of this, it travels well.

    If you haven't played this before, do yourself a favour and just buy it. Not sure why a reviewer said it was complicated, as the base rules are very simple (and then the add-ons and optional rules add complexity).

    This is the perfect game to get into boardgames. It's easy to learn, rewards clever tactics and has some luck thrown in.

    If you want to lessen the complexity, play without farmers.

    That's a 'different' looking game....

    Wonderful game. I much prefer the original design and have many expansions to go with it. Often pops up on eBay or Facebook marketplace.

    Absolutely amazing game, so simple yet so entertaining. Once you get your head around the rules the expanded elements are well worth exploring.

    Great game, we started with the base game and now have the big box version and half a dozen or so extra expansions on top of that.

    Don't always play every single element of every expansion but most are worth including.

    Well worth £20 to get started.
