The Settlers of Catan plays in about 90 minutes and is best with 4 people. The Settlers of Catan is an award winning, 3-4 person dice rolling and hand management game designed by Klaus Teuber. Players take the role of settlers to a new land and try to become the most successful civilization on the island. This idea is what the Settlers of Catan emulates.

But when I step back and think about it, we have it easy compared to what others have endured to change locations.

Packing everything up, changing addresses, and meeting the new neighbors. Whenever I move, I think it’s the biggest hassle in the world.
