Review: Endless Fun with CATAN - CATAN: Dawn of Humankind is absolutely awesome! I’ve spent hours and hours playing this game, and it never gets old. The strategic gameplay keeps everyone engaged, and each session feels fresh with different strategies and approaches. Whether you’re trading resources or building settlements, it’s always a blast. This game is perfect for family game nights or gatherings with friends. If you’re looking for a fun and immersive board game, look no further—CATAN is a must-have!
Review: If you like Settlers of Catan this is a nice variant. - The play is rather predictable, but you can vary your approach in a couple of ways. It takes longer to set up as there are many small pieces. However, these pieces add to the game, and play proceeds along at a fine pace. There's enough of the original to recognize the game, but different enough that you'll need to learn the strategies needed to win. Not a particularly deep game, if you've been a gamer for decades, but the play's fun and there are several routes to victory. A 9 year old, smart girl played with us and figured out how to play on her first playthrough.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the Seafarers expansion pack work with this game?**
A: Heidi, No, this is a fully contained stand-alone game. While the rules are similar, there are differences in turn structure and resources that would make integration with Seafarers difficult at best.

**Q: Would this game be appropriate for a seven year old? He got Catan Jr for his 5th birthday and mastered it quickly.**
A: If he likes catan jr then I’d get him the original catan or seafarers. This one is tough to learn and takes some patience. My kids love the other versions and usually pick game play up quickly but this one wore us down when we hadn’t even started and we were 45min into reading instructions.

**Q: Do you need original Settlers of Catan to play this, or is it a standalone?**
A: You don't need the original Settlers for this game.  Personally, I think this game is more fun than the other. :)

**Q: Is there any way to make it a two player game?**
A: Absolutely! My son and I play together all the time! Only 2 players needed! Enjoy!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The gameboard is thick and sturdy, wooden pieces and sturdy cards
*by K***. on January 2, 2015*

This is a very well built game. The gameboard is thick and sturdy, wooden pieces and sturdy cards. I know this will last for many years as long as we take care of it. I purchased this game to go along with our American History this year and although this is a game of strategy not a recitation of facts or learning of new events, it did open up discussion regarding the expansion of our country westward. The initial setup took almost an hour and my kids were patient enough to continue with the game which we played for another 1/2 hour or so. A word of caution: this game can take a large amount of time. We do not often have 2+ hours to play a game and with 4 kids, ages 8-17, they do not have the patience to wade through a long game. That being said about 1/2 of them wanted to continue playing the game which we left lying around to pick up again on another day. We love playing Risk and Parcheesi so this game was a good fit for us. Overall, I would recommend this game for someone who enjoys taking a few hours to spend on a game, likes games of strategy, appreciates games with a historical context and is looking for a quality game.
