    I personally thought it was kind of boring. Just not my style I guess.

      It's a gateway drug to the style of board games I love.

        Agreed OP

        Love the resource management and expansion aspects of the game.

          I enjoyed it when I had it installed on an old computer. Sometimes I think about get it again.

            It's best with the expansions like Cities and Knights or Seafarers that add a bit more strategic planning. I haven't played with traders and barbarians yet. If you want a game that is Settlers-ish crossed with sabre-rattling or even combat, try Scythe. Excellent excellent excellent.

              I'm going to try introducing my ten year old stepdaughter to Carcassonne, which is sort of Catan lite.

              I used to play board games with friends all the time but the invites completely stopped once I got kids.

                    Burn the witch. I mean it. Literally. That card is no fun unless you like long boring games. It's like they sat around wondering what card they could add that would make their perfectly reasonable game suck.
