About the Game Carcassonne is a German-style board game played by placing tiles and game pieces on a table. While playing, a medieval world of towns, roads and fields unfolds on the table. Carcassonne for iPhone and iPad keeps all the charm of the board game and adds features only a digital board game can provide, like networked multiplayer or taking care of cleaning up the table after a game.

Questions and Support

Press Kit We have a press kit available, if you are looking for basic information, images and videos about Carcassonne. Please let us know immediately if we can assist in any further way.

Questions How much longer is Carcassonne available?

The last day it will be available for purchase is February 29th 2020. See here for the full press release. Will I still be able to play after March 2020?

Yes. The app will just continue to work. Local games and multiplayer will not be affected at all. Only Internet games depend on our servers. How do I restore my expansions?

You can restore your purchases free of charge in the app's purchases menu. (The treasure chest in the main menu.) Can I play with expansions in quick play?

Yes. However currently we limit the combinations of the expansions in quick play to avoid fragmentation of the player base and longer waiting times for games. We try to give three or four useful combinations for quick play.

How long will online play still work?

We promised to keep the server infrastructure up and running at least until 2021. After that we'll keep it running for as long as it is technically feasible. With the 4.40 update we also added the possibility to buy an in-app purchase subscription to help us run the servers longer. I missed the latest update before it was removed from sale, how can I get it?

In this case you first have to offload (not delete) the app before reinstalling it through your purchase history. You can do that in Settings.app > General > iPhone/iPad Storage > Carcassonne > Offload app. Can I play asynchronously?

Yes. In "Play with Friends" you can leave the app and will be notified when it's your turn again. No pressure though, unlike "Quick Play" there are no time limits. Can I play against my family or friends by passing the device around?

Yes, of course. Up to five players can play on the same device.
