My First Carcassonne

My First Carcassonne is a simplified version of the classic tile-laying game designed specifically for young children. It keeps the familiar tile-placement feel of Carcassonne but strips back the rules to something a 4-year-old can follow, making it a great first board game for families.

Players take turns placing tiles to build streets through a medieval town. When a street is completed with children in your colour illustrated on the tiles, you place your pawns on those children. The first player to place all their pawns wins — simple, visual, and satisfying for little ones.

What's good?

• Genuinely accessible for children from age 4
• Introduces tile placement and turn-taking without complex rules
