It’s a race down the Amazon in this tile-laying game inspired by Carcassonne.
A Voyage of Discovery
As you venture into the South American rainforest, river and jungle alike abound
with colorful wildlife that create a spectacular panorama. But you have little
time to appreciate the serenity of the moment: Others are heading into the
wilderness to build camps and explore down the river. The race is on!
Carcassonne: Amazonas sends you on a journey down the Amazon as you fill in the
river and surrounding areas, one tile at a time. Along the way, discover many
wonderful secrets deep in the rainforest. Ultimately, it is up to you to decide
whether you want to place your meeples or camps on the features you discover, or
if you want to forge ahead of the competition and push farther down the river.
Whoever amasses the most points on their journey will be declared the
winner!
Flora & Fauna
All sorts of things are waiting to be discovered in the jungle. On your journey,
you’ll come across many animals, visit villages, and walk along the many
tributaries of the Amazon River. Just like in Carcassonne, you have the option
to place meeples on these features as you discover them and score points once
they’re completed. But with Carcassonne: Amazonas, it takes more than just
cunning tile placement to win—it’s also a race down the Amazon River
itself. When a tile is added to the river, the player whose boat is farthest
down the river scores points equal to the number of piranhas and caimans that
appear on that tile. To become a legendary explorer, you'll need to strike the
right balance between placing your meeples and camps and staying ahead of the
competition!
