You do not know anything about the game ?
In CATAN, players try to be the dominant force on the island of Catan by building settlements, cities, and roads. On each turn dice are rolled to determine what resources the island produces. Players build by spending resources (sheep, wheat, wood, brick and ore) that are depicted by these resource cards; each land type, with the exception of the unproductive desert, produces a specific resource: hills produce brick, forests produce wood, mountains produce ore, fields produce wheat, and pastures produce sheep.
A turn always consists of rolling the dice and everyone (perhaps) collecting resource cards based on the roll and position of settlements (or upgraded cities); however, if a 7 is rolled, the active player moves the robber to a new hex tile and steals a resource card from from another player who has built a structure adjacent to that tile. In addition, you may be able to play a development card, turn in resource cards for improvements, trade cards at a port, and trade resource cards with other players.
Points are accumulated by building settlements and cities, having the longest road and the largest army (from some of the development cards), and gathering certain development cards that simply award victory points. When a player has gathered 10 points (some of which may be held in secret), he announces his total and claims the win.
CATAN has won multiple awards and is one of the most popular games in recent history due to its amazing ability to appeal to experienced gamers as well as those new to the hobby.

卡坦岛：永不过时经典之作登录Board Game Arena！
CATAN （前身为 The Settlers of Catan）于 1995 年首次发行，是多年来一直在全球范围内畅销的经典之作。
如果您从未玩过它，那么值得尝试。
如果您已经了解这款游戏，请不要错过在Board Game Arena上尝试的机会！
你说你不懂这个桌游？
在CATAN中，玩家试图通过建造定居点、城市和道路来成为卡坦岛上的主导力量。 每回合掷骰子来确定岛上生产的资源。 玩家通过消耗这些资源卡所描绘的资源（绵羊、小麦、木材、砖块和矿石）来建造；对于每种土地类型，除了贫瘠的沙漠，都生产特定的资源：丘陵生产砖块，森林生产木材，山脉生产矿石，田地生产小麦，牧场生产绵羊。
每个人的回合由掷骰子开始，如果掷出玩家村庄或城市周边的数字可以获得相应数量及品种的资源卡；但是，如果掷出 7，则是该回合玩家将强盗移动到新的六角格，并从另一个在该格附近建造村庄与城市的玩家那里窃取一张随机的资源卡。 此外，您还可以使用发展卡、使用资源卡进行建造、在港口进行交易以及与其他玩家交易资源卡。
积分是通过建造定居点和城市、拥有最长的道路和最大的军队（来自一些发展卡）以及收集某些只会奖励胜利点的发展卡来积累的。 当一名玩家获得 10 分（其中一些可能被保密）时，他会宣布他的总分并宣布获胜。
CATAN赢得了多个奖项，并且是近期历史上最受欢迎的游戏之一，因为它不仅拥有吸引老手的一定策略性更是能让新手迅速上手的魅力。
