Great game, easy to learn! January 9, 2007 L. K. Shull (Huntsville, AL) 23 out of 25 found this review helpful
My husband heard about Settlers on the Internet, but neither of us had played it until I bought it for him for Christmas. The first night we played, we had 4 people playing. None of us had ever played before. Even so, the game was easy to learn and fun to play from the very beginning. We've played it almost a dozen already and we've had it less than a month. I highly recommend this game for everyone! It's fun because no one feels like a loser in this game--the playing itself is enjoyable for everyone.
Extremely fun game, and definitely not just for kids! May 29, 2007 D. Dinnerville (Dallas, TX USA) 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
I've been playing this game with friends about 6 years now, and we love it. You definitely want the expansion set so you can play with more than 4. And don't let your kids have all the fun. I'm single, and my friends and I love playing Catan on a rainy day or cold night. If you like Risk, you'll enjoy Catan. If you don't like Risk, you'll enjoy Catan. Just play it!
Fun family game! January 12, 2008 Margaret G. Hill (Fort Bragg, CA) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
My son opened this game on Christmas Eve and we stayed up until dawn playing it! The directions look a bit intimidating - but you quickly catch on. Everyone is involved in every turn, so the pace is exciting. Plan to invest several hours!
Great Family Board Game! November 30, 2008 E. Y. Strickler (Woodland, WA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This game was highly recommended by my daughter and her boyfriend. They are both in their mid 20's and enjoy board games with a challenge and the versatility to expand the game. The Settlers of Catan is exactly that kind of game. It is entertaining and challenging as you learn different strategies. I also bought the extension game pieces so we can have up to 6 players. This is great game to gather around for family and friends!
A Must-Play Game! November 26, 2007 M. Breon 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is an amazing game, and I've recommended it to everyone I know. This is basically a turn-based strategy game, but unlike chess or checkers, it also has an element of luck involved (you're rolling the dice every turn). While you can increase your odds of winning by having a great strategy, you won't win unless you get just a bit of luck. That makes it a great game for families and friends to play- the wisest & most experienced player doesn't always win.
