ABOUT THE SETTLERS OF CATAN
Settlers of Catan, designed by Klaus Teuber in 1995, is the world’s most popular designer game, and multi award winner, where players win by becoming the dominant force on the island of Catan by building settlements, cities, and roads, through trading and resource management. It has an amazing appeal to non-gamers and gamers alike, and has been extensively used by educators in classroom to teach:
• Laws of probability.
• Basic economic principles of demand & supply.
• Resource management.
• Negotiation & trading.
