In the era of discoveries, you and other fearless seafarers have arrived on the uncharted island of Catan. The race to settle the island begins as you each place two houses on the hexagonal terrain tiles. Catan, a beautiful island with diverse landscapes, emerges before you.
Rolling the dice sets the game in motion. Each terrain hex is marked with a number, and owning a settlement adjacent to a hex with that number earns you the corresponding resource. Hills produce brick, forests yield lumber, mountains provide ore, fields generate grain, and pastures supply wool.
Using these resources, you expand your presence across Catan by building roads and settlements, and upgrading settlements to cities. Trading with opponents is essential to acquire the necessary resources for your plans. Every settlement is worth 1 victory point, while cities are worth 2.
Cleverly expand your settlements to be the first player to reach 10 victory points and secure the win! With abundant resources and strategic thinking, you and your fellow expedition members aim to dominate Catan. Barter trade and careful placement of settlements are key to your success. Stay alert, as your opponents are equally cunning.
Catan Trade Build Settle is suitable for ages 10 and above, and accommodates 3 to 4 players. Enjoy an engaging gameplay experience lasting 45 to 90 minutes.
