Some Player Aid displays from the Mayfair Games' The Settlers of Catan are shown above. Note the economic model in the Building Costs Chart.
In Settlers of Catan, groups of settlers try to become the dominant group on a remote island by building settlements and cities across its uncharted wilderness. Each player tried to guide their settlers to victory by clever building and trading. Building is based on resources that you gain based on where you build and the roll of the dice. This combination of strategy and luck makes Settlers an excellent game for players of all skill levels.
