Settlers of Catan is a multiplayer board game designed by Klaus Teuber. It was first published in 1995 in Germany. Settlers was the first German-style board game to achieve popularity outside Europe. Over 11 million games in the Catan series have been sold, and the game has been translated into twenty-five languages from the original German. The game has rapidly become popular in part because its mechanics are relatively simple, while its dynamics are quite complex. The game is well suited for family play, since no one gets eliminated, and players who are behind can strive towards goals that are within their reach.

Settlers Mania
We are addicted to this AWESOME game!!! Monte turned us on to the game and since Christmas, we have probably played this 2-3 hour game at least 5 times each week. Most Saturdays we have played 1-2 games. It has done wonders at bringing our family together for some good quality playing time.

So, I haven't quite figured out the "extended" version with knights and stuff but I do like the original Settlers...I haven't played in awhile!
how did the unidentified food items (your previous post) turn out? I was thinking...'Thank GOODNESS we both served stateside'... (well,... maybe iowa should be considered a foreign country.. I DID have the privilege of trying 'rabbit') I Haven't tried this game (cataan) yet, but it sounds fun!
