Return to the island of CATAN with fresh challenges, clever variants, and story-rich scenarios that bring new life to your base game.
CATAN: Traders & Barbarians Expansion gives players more ways to explore, trade, build, and defend the island. Play CATAN with two players, replace dice with event cards for a less luck-heavy feel, fish for helpful bonuses, cross rivers, move wagons across trade routes, and face off against barbarian threats.
