    I recently added 'Catan (Base Game)' to my collection of board games and it has been an absolute hit with my family and friends. This game is a brilliant blend of strategy and luck, suitable for ages 10 and up, and perfect for 3 to 4 players. Each game session lasts around 60 minutes, making it an ideal choice for a fun and engaging evening. The rules are straightforward, yet the game offers immense depth and replayability due to its ever-changing board layout and resource management aspects. The quality of the game components is top-notch, adding to the overall experience. 'Catan' encourages social interaction, strategic thinking, and is a great way to spend quality time with loved ones. It's not just a game; it's a gateway to thrilling adventures and memorable moments. A solid 5-star rating for its educational value, entertainment factor, and superb design.

    I love this board game, but it is easier to learn it from someone who already knows the rules because it is decently complicated. This game is high quality with vibrant colors and well-made game pieces. I love playing this game, but please note that you technically need at least 3 people to play, although I have played with 2 before. Also you must buy the expansion pack to have more than 5 or 6 players. Super fun strategy game, similar to "Ticket to Ride."

    Overview: The Catan 5-6 Player Extension is a must-have addition for fans of the base game. Here’s what you need to know:

    More Players, More Fun:
    The extension allows you to expand your gaming group from the standard 3-4 players to up to 6 players.
    Playing with more friends or family members adds an extra layer of excitement and competition.

    Taming Uncharted Lands:
    In this expansion, you control a group of settlers exploring and taming the uncharted lands of Catan.
    The rich island becomes even more competitive as you vie for resources and strategic locations.

    Additional Components:
    The extension includes green and brown settlers, 2 more harbors, and 11 unique terrain tiles.
    You’ll have more options for building roads, settlements, and cities.

    Not a Standalone Game:
    Important: This is not a complete game by itself. You need the base game (Catan) to play with this extension.
    The extension seamlessly integrates with the main game, enhancing the experience.

    Benefits of Purchasing:

    Flexibility: With the extension, you can adapt your game nights to accommodate larger groups without sacrificing ease of play.
    Variety: The additional terrain tiles and components create fresh setups, ensuring that no two games are alike.
    Social Interaction: More players mean more trading, cunning development, and unexpected twists—perfect for a lively game night.

    In summary, the Catan 5-6 Player Extension enriches the Catan experience, making it a fantastic investment for anyone who loves settling new lands, trading resources, and outwitting opponents. 🌄🌿🌊

    For those who already own the base game, this extension is a no-brainer. Happy settling! 🏡🌟

    This is our new favorite game! It's so much fun to play! I recommend watching a video tutorial on how to play, it really helped us get started, but once you get the hang of it it's really simple and a lot of fun! The board is changed every time you play so the games are different every time which makes it stay fresh and interesting. We plan to get some expansion packs soon to see how they enhance the experience. I'm really glad we got this game and I absolutely recommend it! It is for 3-4 players, but there are official rules you can find online so you can play with 2 players. We play two players all the time it is so much fun regardless!

    Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2020
    Style: CATAN Base GameVerified Purchase
    Me and my husband enjoy playing board games and we were not new to Catan, in fact, it has been one of our favorite games since we got into the board game world. We already owned the "Settlers" and "Rivals" versions of Catan and when we learned of the Black Friday deals on board games, we decided it was the time to have our own version of this game as well (especially since we used to play with some friends and their copy, so us recently moving into another city also played as a factor to buy it).

    As for the game itself, Catan offers a great balance between strategy and competitive gameplay. While luck is almost always a factor in boardgames and Catan is not the exception (dice rolling involved), the game feels more guided and affected by your strategy and decisions rather than by luck, which is good, since this makes the game more compelling and adds weight to the decisions that you make throughout the game. There is also a trading component that allows you to interact with the other players, which is great for stirring some fun arguments and debates. While this game has a competitive approach, it doesn't pit the players against each others through direct confrontation (which is welcomed if you are not looking for an aggressive game where everyone ends up mad at each other), it plays more like a race in which you need to focus on your strategy while keeping watch of the opponents and overall it is extremely fun. It has simple enough mechanics for beginners, but they are also very compelling for more experienced players, specially when you start to play with the randomized board map. It is not a surprise that this is still regarded as a classic game even though it came out a long time ago.

    The materials and details of the cards, boards and pieces are excellent. It is worth mentioning that one of the "settlement" wood pieces was chipped when we opened the box. While this didn't affect the use or gameplay experience and understanding that there are errors expected in manufacturing processes, we still decided to send a note to the customer service address provided by the game developers (not through Amazon) and they responded very quickly and efficiently, and within a week or so we received a replacement piece on the mail, so extra points to the customer service.

    Even if you are not looking to get deep into the board game community, Catan is a must if you enjoy playing games with friends or family. And even if you plan to further try more games, most likely you will always be glad to revisit this wonderful game.

    Reviewed in Canada on February 14, 2024
    Style: CATAN Base GameVerified Purchase
    Catan, also known as The Settlers of Catan, is a timeless classic in the world of board games, and it continues to captivate players with its unique blend of strategy, negotiation, and resource management.

    One of the standout features of Catan is its simplicity in rules, making it accessible for both casual players and seasoned board game enthusiasts. The modular board setup ensures that each game is a fresh experience, as players strategically place settlements and roads on the ever-changing landscape of hexagonal tiles.

    The strategic depth of Catan is truly impressive. Balancing expansion, resource acquisition, and the ever-present threat of the robber forces players to think critically and adapt their strategies based on the evolving dynamics of the game. The race for the Longest Road and Largest Army bonuses adds an extra layer of competition, keeping players on the edge of their seats until the very end.

    In conclusion, Catan is a board game masterpiece that has rightfully earned its status as a classic. Whether you're a seasoned strategist or a casual gamer, the ever-changing landscapes, dynamic player interactions, and strategic depth of Catan make it a must-have for any board game collection. Prepare for countless hours of enjoyment as you embark on the journey to settle the island of Catan.
