Catan 5-6 Player Extension (2015 Refresh) Reviews

4.8 Rating 12 Reviews
Read Zatu Games Reviews

Catan - formerly known as The Settlers of Catan - is one of the most famous designer board games in history. Klaus Teuber’s simple yet engaging 1995 design blazed a new trail for modern board games to follow. The 5-6 player expansion lets you enjoy it with even more people. Catan is a brilliant game to play with all kinds of people, but the base box limits you to three or four players. While the experience at either of these counts is fantastic, many people find themselves wishing that they could bring the game to the table with a larger group. With the expansion, that’s exactly what you can do. So how does the 5 to 6 player expansion work? The box provides you with 11 more terrain hexes that will allow you to construct a much larger playing surface. Additional sea pieces help you to frame the new shape. On this larger board, the game plays almost identically to regular Catan. The only further difference is that all players can build at the end of every turn, so you don’t have to nervously glance at the robber as your hand fills up with resources on five other players’ turns. This clever twist also keeps the game moving, helping to make it as fast, if not faster, than with three or four players. Catan 5-6 player expansion contents: 11 terrain hexes. 4 sea pieces (2 with harbours; 2 without). 2 harbour tiles. 2 full sets of player pieces. 25 resource cards (5 of each type). 9 development cards. 2 blank cards and 1 blank hex. 28 numbered tokens. The Catan 5-6 player expansion also makes it possible to play with 5-6 player extensions for some of the base game’s expansions. You can buy player extensions of Seafarers and Cities & Knights if you want to use this product to help bring those expansions to larger groups. Player count: 5-6 Time: 60-90 minutes Age rating: 10+

The perfect expansion to Catan to allow for 2 more players. If you have that size of gaming group this is a must have.

The base game Catan extension has additional player pieces, additional cards and coasters. It turns the board (however you place them) into an extended rectangular hexagon. Extension pieces have a small watermark marking which pack they’ve come from. Exactly the same quality as you get from the base game.

We just played one game but it was funny, we didn0t try the new rules. The only inconvenient is that there is players with not many options to win at the end and they stopped participanting.

First time user of Zatu Games and extremely happy with its performance. Cheaper then all other online retailers that I have found and speedy delivery from a tracked royal mail shipment meant I was not waiting long at all. Very good service definitely being used again
