This basically gives you some bonus points for knights, farmers, and monks, if you pick a tile with a wheel of fortune symbol on it. I really like city building games, and this is an awesome city building game. Tom Vasel reviews Carcassonne: Wheel of Fortune from Rio Grande Games To buy the game, go to.tinyur.

Carcassonne Solo Variant

Promotional variant based on the base game released in April 2020 during the 'Stay at Home' campaign. Hans im Glück published downloadable rules (in German and in English) for a one-player collaborative variant where the player (or a team) has to score the maximum number of points possible.

It follows the usual rules of the base game with some modifications:

It uses 3 sets of meeples only (4 meeples each in 3 colors), and optional one abbot in another color as turn tracker.
Scoring meeples on the scoreboard are placed initially in specific spaces.
A stack with one third of the tiles is assigned to each color.
Meeples must placed whenever there is an unoccupied feature (except fields).
Only the meeple(s) with the least number of points can score a completed feature.
The game ends when the player cannot place more tiles or cannot place a meeple in a turn (ran out of meeples in one color).
The final scoring is based on the number of meeples placed on the board.

Carcassonne Maps

With Carcassonne Maps, HiG offer a new possibility to play Carcassonne. It is designed for the New Edition.

You can use your tiles and meeples in a country, build cities with real names and influence the course of important roads. There are also new ways to score points, for example by scoring a large city or by connecting roads to neighboring countries.

The map consists of high-quality, strong, linen-embossed paper and has the size A1. The map is delivered rolled up and the purchaser is recommended to flatten it by 'bending against' before use or to press it flat again under a few books. Alternatively, it can also be attached to the table with a removable adhesive tape (crepe, for example). The latter also has the advantage that it is not moved accidentally.

The map requires players to use their own game material from the base game and some major expansions, so it is not a standalone product but a complement to play a variant of the base game with extra tiles.

Current maps:

Benelux
France
Germany (Deutschland)
Great Britain
Iberian Peninsula (Península Ibérica)
USA East
USA West

Map-Chips expansions

Additionally, HiG released Map-Chips, an expansion for Carcassonne Maps. Map-Chips, using the same tokens, provide an expansion with a different set of rules for each map. In France players will press wine, whereas Benelux players may pick face-up tiles stacked on islands. On the Iberian Peninsula, players go geocaching; on the British Isles, players might play twice as fast; and, in Germany, players have the possibility to upgrade their meeples.

Carcassonne Travel Edition

The Travel Edition was released in 2007.

The tile size of the Travel Edition is smaller than the regular game, so it is not possible to add any expansion for the regular game, except The Phantom expansion. Meeples, too, are smaller than normal.

The game includes a bag for the tiles that is printed with a scoring table.

Carcassonne Start Tableau

The Carcassonne Start Tableau was released in 2015.

The tableau features the city of Carcassonne and offers additional possibilities to place tiles at the beginning of the game. The picture is known from The Count of Carcassonne, where it was included as single tiles.

Carcassonne for 2

Carcassonne for 2 was released by Hans im Glück in 2017.

It is a two-player version of Carcassonne that comes in a small metal box. There is no score track.

Contents:

48 landscape tiles (subset of the standard base game with additional tiles in other configurations)
12 meeples in two colours - 6 each in red and blue

Spin-offs

Various variants for Carcassonne spin-offs.

Winter Digital Download

In 2011, prior to the release of Winter Carcassonne, this was made available for download, for personal 'print and play', from the Hans im Glück web site. The intent was for the files to be printed onto stickers and then stuck to regular Carcassonne tiles. Style-wise it was based on the First Edition artwork, with a covering of snow. This edition contained the standard set of 72 tiles and standard rules. Once Winter Carcassonne was released in 2012, the download version was withdrawn.

Build your own countryside

Published 2001

From the publisher's website:

In Carcassonne, players build the area surrounding this impressive city, one tile at a time. They then place a follower on fields, cities, roads or monasteries in order to score as many points as possible. These followers will become knights, monks, farmers and thieves, depending on where they are placed. No matter their function, the player who will most cleverly use their followers will win the game.
