Summary: love it 2010-03-11
Comment: we played this game at a friend house and got hooked from the start.it may take a few rounds to understand how to play but once you do you will have a blast.this is a great game.
Summary: Catan + Expansion = better! 2010-03-05
Comment: Even if you've only got 3 or 4 people playing Catan, it's *much* better with the expansion! I find the extra room and resources makes for a better game. Plus, you need this expansion in order to play the expanded Knights and Cities expansion.
Summary: If you love Catan and want to spread the joy, buy this! 2010-02-26
Comment: OK. I like Catan. It is a great game to sit around and play, especially if your friends are good natured about it. Having a few drinks over a game of Catan is a fun experience that I recommend to everyone from the casual player to the serious. This expansion is great for one reason, and only one reason: It increases the number of people who can play with you! (This also makes the trading phase of the game have more strategy, as there are more players to trade with -- This can be a major plus if you are "serious" about the game).

The only negative is that the game will become longer. Read: double the amount of time. You might not think that only 2 more people would add this much time, but it really does. Coordinating everyone in this game takes some effort, and the more peopel the harder it becomes.

I definitely recommend this expansion if you want to increase the number of players who can join the fun!

Note: The expansion is made out of the same junk cardboard the original board is, so this game gets low marks for durability. --Seriously, this thing will wear quickly with use.

Comment: Catan is such a fun game. This extension pack just allows more people to play, so more fun!
Summary: Beware early Catan core game owners! 2010-02-11
Comment: I had been excited about getting this to allow more players in our regular game night...however what is not listed is that this is made for the later editions where the water pieces are linked together like a puzzle (not the normal hexagon shaped water pieces). Really.. how hard would it have been to crank out a few water pieces to fit the old editions and toss them in the box... boom, all editions are now covered in one shot.

I'm sad to say I had to return this hours after receiving it.
