With “Fog over Carcassonne” a new game of the Carcassonne family in fourth quarter of 2022 to appear. It’s about a cooperative family game and will be playable on its own. However, all the material can also be integrated into other “Carcassonne” versions in the form of various modules.
Among other things, it will contain 60 tiles and 45 meeples in two new shapes. The design is similar to the Carcassonne 3.0-Version – but it can also be combined with all other versions. It was penned by the author Klaus-Jürgen Wrede and is published by Hans im Glück.
That’s what the game is about
Dense fog covers the meadows, swallows up entire farmsteads and creeps up to the city walls. Even the bravest knights tremble and their armor clatter when they hear the monks’ tale: “The mist brings forth the souls of the Cathars who were hunted during the Crusades. And they come back for justice!”
In cooperative mode, you must join forces and appease the spirits. To save everyone, you’ll need to stem the spread of ghosts, contain the haunted earth in the cemeteries, and use the spooky haunted castles to your advantage. The game is played according to the well-known rules of “Carcassonne” in terms of placing tiles and collecting points. But at the same time, you have to work together to keep as few ghosts from appearing as possible and survive three days. If there are too many ghosts on the field or the tiles run out before you have collected enough points, you all lose the game together. Different levels of difficulty provide enough challenge.
