Playing Catan:

The Basics

Game play involves players building up their settlements by trading resources, which are depicted on resource cards, with the other players. Each land type, except the unproductive desert, will produce a specific resource card that can be used throughout the adventure. For example, hills produce brick, forests produce wood, mountains produce ore, fields produce wheat, and so on.

Acquiring resources will allow you to trade these resources with the other players and help you build settlements. You will also want to buy development cards that will help you throughout your journey to victory. It is also important to note that cities produce twice as many resources as settlements. Resource production and trade are some of the main objectives, and clever trading is one of the main strategies among experienced players.

Taking A Turn

Starting a new game takes a bit of board set up. Once the Catan game board has been set up with the appropriate settlements, game pieces, and tiles, players can begin taking their turns rolling the die. Everyone begins with two settlements and roads which are placed on the intersections and borders of the resource tiles. A turn allows a player to possibly play a development card, collect resources based on your roll, trade resource cards, etc.

Winning The Game: Victory Points

Winning the modern classic involves building the most settlements and roads, having the largest army, building the largest road, and gathering specific development cards that gain you victory points. A victory point is the key to winning the game. When a player reaches 10 points, they win the game.
