Description
In Carcassonne: The Castle, players collaborate and compete to build a castle within the city walls. Each turn, a player draws a tile and adds it to the growing castle, scoring points for completing features like walls, towers, and roads. However, the placement rules are strict, and players must carefully consider how their tiles connect to the existing structure.
Careful planning and tactical tile placement are crucial to maximizing your score while hindering your opponent. As the castle grows, opportunities for scoring become more limited, making each decision increasingly important in this strategic tile-laying game.
