Carcassonne – Build the Landscape Tile by Tile 🏰🧩

One tile, one decision, one growing map – Carcassonne is the tile-laying classic for families, couples and friends.

In this board game for 2 to 5 players aged 7 and up, you build a medieval landscape together: cities, roads, monasteries and fields. On your turn, draw a tile, add it to the map and decide whether to place one of your followers on it to score.

🧩 Draw and Place

Each tile must fit the ones next to it – roads to roads, cities to cities.

👤 Place a Follower

Put a meeple on a city, road, monastery or field. When the feature is complete, you score and take the follower back.

⚔️ Share or Steal

Connect your city to someone else's and you may share the points – or take the lead.

🗺️ A New Map Every Game

The landscape grows differently each time, so your plan changes with it.
