Carcassonne: The River

Enclosure

You're surrounding and claiming territory on the board — fence off your space before someone else does!

End Game Bonuses

Extra points are awarded at the end for meeting certain goals — keep an eye on those bonus objectives!

Map Addition

New areas get added to the map as you play — the world literally grows as the game goes on.

Modular Board

The board is made of separate pieces arranged differently each game — no two setups are ever quite the same.

Pattern Building

You arrange pieces to create specific patterns that score points — like solving a colorful puzzle.

Square Grid

The board uses a grid of squares for movement — clear, familiar, and great for tactical play.
