Surprising, but this is a game day posting. I had not planned on a game day posting for some time. But life, just like Settlers of Catan<\/a>, is always exciting. New found friends exposed me to the game. I’m sorry I haven’t played it sooner because it would have been a great game to play with my family.<\/p>\n

The Settlers of Catan<\/a> is great clean fun, unless of course you happen to be a little to over zealous with the robber when a 7 is rolled! The game was fast moving in the beginning and started to slow near the end as everyone tried to make the most of every opportunity. Even as it slowed the turn based trading and building helped to keep the interaction frequent and interesting.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
