Customer Rating:      Summary: Awesome game Comment: I had played this game before I bought it with friends. When they described it to me it sounded completely boring. It's one of those games that can't really be explained (like Apples to Apples ... a game with nouns and adjectives) but it a lot more fun to play. I recommend it from Amazon because you're probably not going to find it for less anywhere else.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Very nice game! Comment: We were very satisfied with this game. The concept is refreshing, although it's a step-up over monopoly; the game has a good set of rules that let's one finish up in a finite amount of time plus the variable aspect of the game brings in certain degree of novelty each time we played. My ten year old was able to quickly understand all the rules and wanted to keep playing. Definitely recommend the product. Just one suggestion to the game makers, maybe the thickness of the hexes can be worked onto so they latch and stay on better.
Customer Rating:      Summary: This is a new version of the Game Comment: This is the new version of the game, meaning that the cards and tiles have a different picture on them and the water tiles are a different shape than the older version. All the changes are good in my opinion and the new water pieces hold the board together much better than the old one.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Fun Times Comment: I got this game for my daughter for Christmas after she highly recommended it from playing in class. We were not disappointed as the game has given us hours of fun. There are many different scenarios each time you play so it is fresh each time you play although I can already feel the desire to get an expansion pack for a different level of gaming.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Not just for guys Comment: Most of the reviews I've seen here talk about how their boys love the game. I just wanted to add that my (very girly) 12 year old and (very cynical) 15 year old girls absolutely LOVE this game. We opened it up for the first time two days ago, felt inititially overwhelmed by the directions, and, after about 5 or 10 minutes of play, got hooked. Since you need 3 to play (and since my husband hasn't gotten bitten by the bug yet), I have finally found the perfect lever to make my kids take care of chores or homework--do X,Y, and Z and then we'll play Catan. They are gleefully looking forward to teaching their uncles how to play, and then pounding them unmercifully.

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. 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. 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. For 3 to 4 players.
