A Catan Adventure for Fledgling Swashbucklers

The folks over at Mayfair Games have announced the upcoming release of Catan: Junior coming this April.

Explore the Seas! Catan: Junior introduces a modified playing style of the classic game giving  younger players the opportunity to experience the world of Catan! Designed for players as young as 5 and is a perfect introduction to the Catan series of games for kids and families. 

 Catan: Junior takes place on a ring of islands where 2 to 4 players build hideouts, and the mysterious Spooky Island, where the Ghost Captain lives. Each island generates a specific resource: wood, goats, rum or swords and players can acquire gold.

 Each player starts with two pirate hideouts, then builds ships in order to expand their network. The more hideouts you build, the more resources you may receive. You use your resources to build ships, hideouts or get help from Coco the Parrot. Just watch out for the dreaded Ghost Captain!

 Be the first player to control seven pirate hideouts and you win the game!
