Carcassonne: Catapult challenges players’ dexterity as they have to use the wooden catapult to hurl one of four types of catapult tokens each time a ‘fair’ tile is drawn and placed. The different types of catapult tokens are as follows:

- Knock out tokens- any follower hit by one of these tokens must be returned to it’s owner, even if the follower hit belongs to the player who hurled the token. If the token knocks one follower into another follower, then both are returned to their owners.

- Seduction tokens- enable the swapping of followers. The player hurling the token is able to swap one of their followers for the closest opponent’s follower to where the token lands.

-Target hurling tokens- the aim is to hurl these tokens as close as possible to, if not onto, to the fair tile just placed. The player whose token lands the closest to the fair tile immediately earns 5 points.

-Catch tokens- the hurler places the measuring board between themself and the player to their left. The aim for the hurler is to hurl the token past the measuring board while the other player tries to catch it. 5 points are awarded to either the hurler or their opponent based on whether the token makes it past the measuring board and whether it is caught by the other player.
