I never saw Tetris with Carcasonne. I like it.

Great idea!  :D
What about an alternative ("Carcassonne-style") scoring system? I mean: 2 points for every tile of a completed city, 3 if it contains a cathedral, etc.  ;)

Heh, that is scary fanstatic!

Scary because I know I would become easily addicted to this is it was a computer game.

I didn't really think about it in that way - but this is what Carcassonne, The New World accomplished. And with the way the Surveyors move it's like when the bottom row would drop off when you have it completed. Amazing I never connected the similarity before.
I just drew the perfect tile for my MonKnighThieFarmer!

If any part of the feature is on the bottom row, you would have to get them complete before you completed the bottom row. That would be very challenging.

If you want to play, you only have to make a playing area with 10x13 tiles (45x58,5 cm) get started: draw a tile, let it drop and rotate until bottom and try to complete any features. You only have to miss the rush. And there has to be negative points for any not matching edge.

Great idea.

I think another option for gameplay is that you have a set amount of tiles and you are just trying to score the most points from completed features before the tiles run out.

I never thought about Carcassonne what way either. Fantastic idea! :)
Another addition maybe 2-player game, where two players play in their own boxes challenging each other (similar to "Dr. Mario" on NES). And (again, similar to "Dr. Mario") if a player completes two features with one tile, in other player's box next tile will go without any possibility to change the place it will drop and rotating position >:D

I started a threat with my suggestion of rules for a Solo-Carcassonne in Tetris style:

I think the original poster meant something like this, I created it this weekend, having some free time and urge to program a small game.
