Top reviews from other countries
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.
The extension has arrived in its own box similar to the original game, but just smaller in size.
While the original game set allows you to play the game with up to 4 people, this extension makes it playable for 5 to 6 people. The set has extra terrain hexes with round number tokens for those hexes , and edge port cards to extend the board for extra playable area. It also includes settlements and cities with the roads for extra two people, coming in green and brown colors. The set also includes additional resource and development cards. Basically, that is everything you will need to make game enjoyable for another two more people.
The quality of the items are en par with the original game we own, although there is slight difference in coloring of the resource and development cards and the hexes as well. But to be fair, our friends got an extension too from different place and they have the same issue, so I guess that's quite normal, and it does not really affect the playability of the game.
We already have the extension for over a month, and we had a chance to use it on few occasions, and I can't really express the amount of positive emotions we have experienced while playing the game.
