I am a huge fan of Settlers of Catan, so I was thrilled to try out the Seafarers Adventure Board Game Expansion. It did not disappoint!The expansion is well-designed, adding a new layer of excitement to the classic game. The maritime theme is a refreshing twist, and it seamlessly integrates with the original gameplay. The quality of the components is excellent, ensuring durability for countless gaming sessions.What I love most is the flexibility it brings to the table. With options for 3 to 4 players, it’s perfect for family game nights or smaller gatherings. The suggested playtime of 60 minutes is just right – long enough to be engaging but not too lengthy.Catan Studio has done a fantastic job with this expansion pack. It not only captures the essence of Settlers of Catan but elevates the gaming experience. If you’re a fan of the base game, this expansion is a must-have. Highly recommended for adults and families alike!

This is my favorite expansion pack – it gives the larger board for more players with exciting new play options. The best thing is while it adds to the game, it so different that it’s too difficult for newer players to understand quickly – no one wants to spend half the night explaining the difference in rules! The basics are adding ships that cost two resources, add another variation of the robber, and some basic placement rules similar to building/connecting roads. The rule book includes different setups with specific challenges or points that are fun and provide even more variations – for example, one setup has mystery resource tiles to claim once your ships reach that part of the board. If you want to just free play with random setups to get playing quickly that’s also an option. The board pieces themselves are high quality and interlock well. We fit all the important pieces in one Catan box and moved the extra instructions and papers into the other rather than having to open up both boxes for game night. Enjoy!

My sister and brother-in-law got me and my partner hooked on the base game, that I decided to gift them this expansion for Christmas. We visited them and it was four straight nights of multiple, competitive, late-hour sessions, with lots of laughs, hisses and glares in between!! After dinner, the table gets cleared, the board is set, and it’s every man or woman for himself!!The new rules are not really hard to learn if you have a great understanding of the base game. We have mostly played scenarios 1-4, and scenario 9 a couple of times. Scenarios 5-8 is a bit complicated for everyone’s understanding right now, so we haven’t played those. Yet!This game is so addictive, that I am buying the base game and this expansion again for ourselves, and I am getting us and them the Game of Thrones version!!

This is a great addition to the game. I would recommend this as you first expansion pack to buy. It definitely adds time to the game but is a great option for game nights!

I liked it and thought it was interesting, only a couple issues I noticed upfront -1. It’s made for 3-4 players. My husband and I play catan a lot, it’s a 2 player game, why make the expansion 3-4 players? Regardless, we just played it as two and followed the 3 player instructions. Still weird tho.2. I get that it’s an expansion, so you need the original catan, but it felt like it was intentionally designed that way to FORCE people to buy it. Like it’s great it’s all labeled with boats for this expansion, but I hated having to tear apart my regular Catan and Frankenstein the two together. So had to be really careful with clean up to separate the two.Overall, I’m glad I got it, I’ve been dying to try an expansion and this was our first, but I think the design could’ve had more thought put into it.

I enjoyed playing the original Catan base game with my boyfriend and bought an expansion for him as a gift. We love playing the scenario where all lands are a mystery until you explore or discover it and we might get a really good resource like the gold mine or bad ones like a sea or dessert.

For grandson. He had the first one and loved adding this to his collection. Of course he tried to teach me the game. It took me awhile to catch on but I eventually got it. It’s a challenging strategy game.

Damn you pirates!!!
Love this expansion! Set up takes a bit of work but game is super fun and takes longer than regular Catan. Love that there are so many different scenarios to play.

Versión Americana
Todo muy bien, solo considerar que las piezas son la versión americana y no embona con la versión latina, aun asà se puede jugar sin problema
