Carcassonne: Over Hill and Dale

About this board game

Carcassonne: Over Hill and Dale is a standalone game for 2–5 players that takes about 35 minutes to play. It invites players to become farmers, caring for animals on large farms while cultivating fields filled with fruits and vegetables.

In this fresh agricultural setting, the familiar focus on towns and castles makes room for productive farmland. Players collect fruits and vegetables, build stables to house animals, and work to provide for the people in a way that feels both practical and rewarding.

A standout feature of Carcassonne: Over Hill and Dale is the ability to walk a meeple down a path. As the meeple travels down a hill, players can score more points, adding a distinctive movement-based element to the game.

• Cultivate fields of fruits and vegetables.

Whether you are drawn to its farming theme or its new scoring opportunity, Carcassonne: Over Hill and Dale offers a self-contained entry in the series. Gather what the land provides, develop your farms, and look for opportunities to turn a walk down the hill into valuable points.
