The city of Carcassonne is celebrating its national holiday. As is the tradition, people mark the occasion by setting the city’s sheep, hens, and cows loose in the streets. From dawn till dusk, the children of Carcassonne have the time of their lives trying to bring these animals back home. With My First Carcassonne, players of all ages can experience a new version of the modern classic in this award-winning children's game.
As a board-gamer parent, our founder Lisa loves Carcassonne and wanted to introduce her littlest gamer to one of her favorite games. This Carcassonne Junior version uses the same core game design that wows us in Carcassonne but removes the need to count up high scores. Your littlest gamer's goal here is to place big, sturdy tiles and as many pawns as possible. Each turn, you place a tile to build the Medieval city of Carcassonne. As the game progresses, the children of Carcassonne fill the streets trying to catch animals. Whenever you close a street with one or more children marked with your chosen color, you get to put pawns on the board. The first player to place all their pawns wins the game!
- A kid-friendly adaptation of one of our favorite games!
- Fun for kids - and fun for parents to play along too.
