A Party Game Called Carcassonne. Is Played On A Wooden Table. Zeewolde Flevoland The Netherlands 9 Feb 2020 Editorial Image

The game board is a medieval landscape built by the players as the game progresses. The game starts with a single terrain tile face up and 71 others shuffled face down for the players to draw from. On each turn a player draws a new terrain tile and places it adjacent to tiles that are already face up. The new tile must be placed in a way that extends features on the tiles it touches: roads must connect to roads, fields to fields, and cities to cities.After placing each new tile, the placing player may opt to station a piece called a `follower` or `meeple` on a feature of that newly placed tile. The placing player may not use a follower to claim any features of the tile that extend or connect features already claimed by another player. However, it is possible for terrain features claimed by opposing players to become `shared` by the subsequent placement of tiles connecting them. For example, two separate field tiles each with a follower can become connected into a single field by another terrain tile.
