SON: Mamma I am getting really bored. Please suggest me a game which is very amusing and intellectual. So that I can spend my quality time, rather just playing games on your mobile.
MAMMA: Let me think. Why don’t you go out and play an outdoor game?
SON: No mamma it is too hot outside, and secondly my friends are here for a sleepover and they want to spend their summer holidays in the best possible way.
MAMMA: So, in that case, I have got a very interesting game, which will very well cater to your need. I bought it yesterday only from FUNCORP.IN. The game of name is CATAN.
SON: Thanks mamma for the game. The packaging of the game looks very alluring, but it looks difficult to play since it’s above our age limit. I am sceptic we can understand how to play and might become tedious too.
MAMMA: Don’t worry son, I will guide you once and then you can have a good hold on the game and secondly this game will help to broaden your ability to think and analyse and bring out another level of smartness within you. So, now go call your friends.
SON: Here we are a mamma. Let’s start playing.
MAMMA: Okay. Here we go. Firstly, this CATAN GAME is based on recruiting resources such as bricks, fleece, woods, iron-ore, lumber, mix gains and timber. After recruiting the same you or your friend has to build a city, building, street, settlements, roads on different hexagonal tiles, to collect 10 points of victory.
In order to start the game, each of you will be getting 2 settlements and 2 roads. As you all can see that tiles are labelled as mountains, slopes, local pastures, harbours, forests, fields, woods and deserts. So anyone of you rolls down the two-sided dice, and see on which hexagonal tile you land up. For instance, if you land up on mountains, you will get two resource cards and you can use the same for construction and earn points and on another hand, desert tile is a dormant tile, which doesn’t provide and resources. But be careful because if anyone of you rolls down 7, then all of you have to surrender half of your resource cards. Wait there is more for the twist, there is a robber token which has the power to remove any player from ones constructed edifice or streets.
So, kids, I am off to my work now, I hope the game has been understood by you all now. But if any query arises I am just at next door.
CATAN FSK-7189900
The Settlers of CATAN have to settle on an unknown island and build a city or building with relevant resources. Every 19 hexagonal tiles comprise of different landscapes of the island, where construction has to be done and earn 10 points for winning the game. Here a settler can either acquire the applicable resources through resource cards or can trade with another player. So this game of settlers is very intriguing, since the entire time while a player has to struggle to accumulate resources for construction and gain victory points.
Hence, in short, this board game should be incorporated by adults in the toy collection of kids so that their mind becomes more sharp and broader.
