Catan is now born - a beautiful island with mountains, pastures, hills, fields, and forests, surrounded by the sea. To begin the game, we build the game board with hexagonal terrain tiles. Proceed strategically! If you found your settlements in the right places and skillfully trade your resources, then the odds will be in your favor. Ore for wool, brick for lumber - you trade according to what is needed for your current building projects. Some resources you have in abundance, other resources are scarce. Will you succeed in gaining supremacy on Catan? Barter trade dominates the scene. You build roads and new settlements that eventually become cities. Fortunately, the land is rich in natural resources. The women and men of your expedition build the first two settlements. And you never know when the wily robber might steal some of your precious gains! But beware! Someone might cut off your road or buy a monopoly. Acquire your resources through trades, cards, or lucky dice (even outside your turn). Use resource combinations- grain, wool, ore, brick, and lumber-to buy handy development cards and build roads, settlements, and cities. No two games are the same! Embark on a quest to settle the isle of Catan! Guide your settlers to victory by clever trading and cunning development. The random mix creates a different board virtually every game. Start by revealing Catan's many harbors and regions: pastures, fields, mountains, hills, forests, and desert. Your adventurous settlers seek to tame the remote but rich isle of Catan. The Settlers of Catan™ the original strategy board game. Other fearless seafarers have also landed on the shores of Catan: the race to settle the island has begun! Its name shall be Catan! But you are not the only discoverer.

Picture yourself in the era of discoveries: after a long voyage of great deprivation, your ships have finally reached the coast of an uncharted island.
