Description
Carcassonne: Hunters and Gatherers is a fun and strategic board game where 2 to 5 players take turns placing tiles to create a prehistoric landscape. The game is easy to learn and plays out in about 35 minutes, making it a great option for a quick game night. Players place meeples to score points from the map they're creating, with different types of meeples representing hunters, gatherers, or fishermen. The game introduces some exciting twists on the classic Carcassonne formula, with features like forests, rivers, lakes, and meadows to explore. Players can earn bonus tiles for completing forests with gold nuggets, and huts can be placed on rivers or lakes to score fish. With its unique mechanics and simple rules, Carcassonne: Hunters and Gatherers is a great introduction to the series or a fun variation for experienced players.
