10 "Visitor Review" by Angie
I'm thankful to whoever introduced me to this game. It's great to
find a game where situations can change at the bat of an eye.
Everyone I've introduced the game to loves it as much as I do. It's
become a staple in our household.
7 "Too much of a good thing?" by Jonathan Dietrich
Settlers is great! Seafarers is even better! But
by adding 5 or six players you end up with long
waits between your turns especially if dealing
with players like myself who very much try to
manipulate trading until it is favourable. Might
be better if played with a timer to limit
haggling, but I haven't tried it yet.
8 "Very solid expansion" by Chris Pieters
It is so nice to own a great game, and then have
flexibility for the # of players! That is
precisely what you get with this, plus some minor
tweaks to the rules.
I've found that it DOES tend to add some time to
the play & setup, but not a lot. 3-4 player
takes about 75-90 minutes, for me; 5-6 player is
usually 90 minutes, but up to 2 1/4 hours. The
rule tweak that allows everyone a chance to play
between others' turns, but without the benefit of
maritime trading, helps to keep the game moving.
10 "Better" by Mark Knutson
The more people the better it really adds to the
drama of the game.
9.5 "Expanded entertainment and time" by Marcia A.
Playing the Settlers of Catan with six people was great, however the estimated time of play "1-2" hours is completely inaccurate(having recently played 6 games over the course of 2 days, each lasted a minimum of 3 hours). It was worth it though and I would recommend the expansion set.
