📖 About This Game

The Abbot is a mini-expansion for Carcassonne introduced with the 2014 new-art edition. Each player gains a special abbot follower that can be placed on a monastery or a garden. Instead of placing a follower on a later turn, a player may retrieve their abbot and immediately score points equal to the monastery/garden tile plus each orthogonally adjacent tile at that moment. If the abbot remains on the board at game end, it scores like an incomplete monastery/garden.
