Explore the seas! Catan: Junior introduces a modified playing style of the classic Settlers of Catan, giving players as young as five a perfect introduction to the Catan series of games.
Catan: Junior takes place on a ring of islands where 2 to 4 players build hideouts and encounter the mysterious Spooky Island, where the Ghost Captain lives. Each island generates a specific resource: wood, goats, molasses or swords, and players can acquire gold. Each player starts with two pirate hideouts on different islands, and they can use the resources they acquire to build ships, hideouts or get help from Coco the Parrot. By building ships, they can expand their network; the more hideouts they build, the more resources they may receive. Just watch out for the dreaded Ghost Captain!
Be the first player to control seven pirate hideouts, and you win!
What sets this apart from the previous Die Siedler von Catan: Junior:
As in Die Siedler von Catan: Junior you can't chain ships, you must build a pirate lair before continuing on.
This has quickly become a new favourite for our family. The kids (7 and 12) enjoy strategizing their moves and I love that it holds their interest. We haven't played the original version of Catan so can't offer a comparison.
It just might be! This version is an ideal introduction to the Catan series, and the pirate theme will appeal to young and old alike. Catan Junior plays very quickly, which is perfect if your players have shorter attention spans. The plastic galleons and lairs add a ton of charm.
Good service,recommend this site.
I like Catan Jr more than regular Catan. It's a perfect game for young families. Very similar to Catan but simplified and they've changed the trading to make the game more set-collection and less negotiation.
The components are terrific. The little plastic pirate ships and pirate bases will draw in any young gamer. Highly recommended!
