So I’ve been playing The Settlers of Catan on XBOX Live Arcade pretty much whenever I get a free moment over the last week or so.
From what I am aware, Catan is a board game created in Germany around 1995.
The game itself reminded me of Civilization and Age of Empires which are both two games that got more than their fair share of my time where you start off with not with not a lot and need to build up your resources requiring some luck and a lot of strategy.
So because I’ve been obsessed with the version on XBOX Live Arcade I went out and found the original board game and bought a copy.
While in the puzzle shop I also found out that there are expansion packs to which include the ability to have larger maps and more players and scenarios.
The standard game requires a minimum of three players and a maximum of four, so I’m hoping I can find a couple of people who are willing to set aside some time to learn this great game have a play.
