The Settlers of Catan

The Settlers of Catan

In The Settlers of Catan you control a group of settlers trying to tame the wilds on the remote but rich island of Catan. Start by revealing the island's many port sites and regions: plains, meadows, mountains, hills, forests, and desert. The random mix creates a different board for virtually every game!

Then embark on a quest to settle the island. Guide your settles to victory by clever trading and cunning development. Instead of money, you use combinations of resources - grain, wood, ore, brick, and timber - to purchase development cards or build roads, settlements, and cities. Acquire your resources through trades or the luck of the dice. But beware! Someone might cut off your road or buy a monopoly! And you never know when the robber will appear and steal away with your precious gains!
