Carcassonne: Messenger & Mayor brings a bold new twist to the classic tile-laying strategy game, introducing new gameplay and exciting ways to score. This fifth major expansion adds three new wooden piece types, six Abbey tiles, and twelve landscape tiles, giving players more strategic options than ever before.
 
The Abbey tiles act like cloisters but with added flexibility, they don’t need to match adjacent tiles and instantly complete surrounding features when placed, creating opportunities for clever scoring bursts. Mayors strengthen your presence in cities, with power determined by the number of pennants, making city control more critical and competitive.
 
Barns allow players to score fields during the game rather than waiting until the end, keeping everyone on their toes and adding an exciting layer of tactical timing. Wagons bring mobility to your Meeples, moving along roads, cities or cloisters and advancing to an adjacent open feature once their current feature is complete, rewarding planning and foresight.
 
With Messenger & Mayor, Carcassonne becomes faster-paced, more strategic, and more unpredictable. Every tile placement, every piece, and every move carries weight, giving veteran and new players alike fresh challenges and endless replayability.
