Game of the Day: Settlers of Catan

Admit it. If you've played or even heard of Settlers of Catan, you've made a "Wood for Sheep" joke at some point. It takes Wil Wheaton less than a minute to go there in today's video. Our featured game, Settlers of Catan from Klaus Treber, is one of the most successful games in history. The premise of the game is that players are competing and bartering for resources as they settle a newly-discovered island. The game involves a high amount of strategy, so an experienced player certainly has an edge, but it is a dice game, which means that there is also a fair amount of luck involved. Therefore, even novice players will always have a chance to win. But enough about that. Let's let Wil and the rest of the gang show us how it's done in today's episode, Settlers of Catan.


Tomorrow is Wits & Wagers. Until then, Play More Games!
