How to play Catan
Players roll for resources, trade with one another, and spend what they collect to extend roads and establish new settlements on a changing hex-based map. It feels like a friendly but competitive race, with negotiation and dice results often shaping the next move. Catan suits 3 to 4 players who want an accessible strategy game with plenty of table talk; games take 60 to 120 minutes and are for ages 10 and up.
