You never give up! Despite the long journey to your new homeland, and the loss of everything you owned, you have made it: you are a settler of Catan!

You begin with nothing more than your own two hands, and each day will bring you a host of new experiences and adventures. Hunting bears and wolves?

Building trunks and furniture? Working hides and skins? Not a problem for you!

But soon you grow tired with simply roaming the island. Your goal is to settled down with a roof over your head, sheep to breed, and a field to sow your grain. To do this, you will need the help of the other settlers in the village. Easily done! If you supply a sword to Jared, he will give you a bag of seeds in return. Osmund needs a new chest, and offers you some sheep.

Candamir would like new windows and can help you build your new house.

Again and again you head out for the wilderness, hunting bears and wolves, collecting honey and rare herbs. But you must be cautious! Hungry bears and wolves are no laughing matter, poisonous snakes hide in the grass, and behind some tree lurks a savage robber!

Will you be afraid? Never!

It is time to settle Catan, where adventure awaits....

Players take on the role of newcomers to Catan and learn how the adventurous life in the first settlement played itself out. They explore, using a new movement mechanic, for the raw materials they need to build the settlement. Along the way, they discover useful natural products - but also encounter wild animals and are confronted with adventurous situations. Those who survive these encounters obtain the raw materials they sought as well as experience points that improve the abilities of the player's character. Over time, then, the player becomes stronger, smarter or more charismatic and is better and better suited for the dangers of the wild.

Back in the village, the natural products can be used to brew beverages while the raw materials are used for building. Through this building, the settlement grows and players obtain victory points.

The main attraction of the game lies in the exploration of the island and the development of the individual player characters. But trading and interaction between the players is also important.
