The imposing silhouette of Carcassonne sits like a throne
in the Light of the setting sun. The city also acts as a fortress,
protecting those who live there with its impenetrable walls. Visit the
city to discover its many features and to learn why it is so magnificent.
An exciting tile-laying competition between two players. Inside the castle
walls, the city grows as the players place tiles and their followers:
knights to guard the towers, heralds to spread the news, and merchants to
sell their wares in the markets. The player who makes better use of his
followers will lead the race around the castle wall, which is also the
scoring track for the game. There are several items waiting on the castle
wall for the first player to reach them. Each will prove useful to the
player who acquires.
