Carcassonne: Sheep & Shepherds brings new life, and a touch of danger, to the rolling fields of Carcassonne. As the ninth major expansion to the beloved classic, this adventure lets players take on the role of shepherds tending their flocks, while navigating the unpredictable challenges of hills, vineyards, and lurking wolves. Strategy, timing, and a little bit of luck are the keys to success in this countryside showdown.
 
Watch your landscape come alive as hills rise above the plains, creating new opportunities and breaking ties between rival followers. These elevated spots offer powerful advantages in close contests, making every placement a strategic decision. Meanwhile, vineyards add richness and tension to the game, boosting monastery scores but tempting opponents to block them before they’re complete.
 
Then there’s the heart of the expansion: the shepherds and their sheep. Nurture your growing flock for valuable points, but beware, the longer you wait to trade them in, the higher the risk of drawing a wolf and losing everything. This thrilling push-your-luck mechanic adds excitement to every turn, ensuring no two games ever play the same.
 
With its blend of tactical depth, charming theme, and unpredictable twists, Carcassonne: Sheep & Shepherds is a must-have for fans looking to expand their Carcassonne experience. Build wisely, protect your flock, and may your fields flourish with fortune!
