DESCRIPTION
Players are recent immigrants to the newly populated island of Catan. Expand your colony through the building of settlements, roads, and villages by harvesting commodities from the land around you.
Players roll dice to determine which resources are generated each round and then must strategically trade those resources with other players to get what they need to build their settlements, cities, and roads. With multiple ways to gain victory points and a board that changes in every play, Settlers of Catan is a game that can be played hundreds of different ways.
Trade sheep, lumber, bricks and some grain for a settlement, bricks and wood for a road, or try to complete other combinations for more advanced buildings, services and specials. Trade with other players, or at local seaports to get resources you might lack.
The first player to achieve 10 points from a combination of roads, settlements, and special cards wins. Rules revised and now Standardized the World Over, Wood component colors are Red, White, Blue, Orange. (3rd US Edition, English Language).
One of the most successful games of all time, Settlers of Catan is a trading and building game set in the mythical world of Catan. The base of a hugely successful franchise, with multiple engaging expansions, Settlers is the core game of many collections, and is a wonderful way to spend time with family and friends.
