Embark on a quest to settle the isle of Catan! After a long voyage, your tired crew finally reaches the shores of an uncharted island. But wait, you are not the only discoverer! Looking to your left and right, you see other explorers as they leap off their boats, onto the sandy shore. The race is on. Explore the harbors and regions that lie before you - pastures, fields, mountains, hills, forests and deserts. As you begin to collect resources, you must trade them carefully. Be cunning, but beware! As your resources begin building roads, settlements and cities, others are building too. Someone might cut you off from building your empire, or perhaps the robber will steal your fist full of resources. Only the smartest and most resourceful explorer will win victory in Catan!
