Catan: Portable Edition

A compact travel edition of the classic resource-trading and settlement-building game. Players collect resources from hexes with fixed number tokens, build roads and settlements by snapping preprinted pieces into the portable board, and trade with each other or use ports in predetermined locations. The desert hex and production numbers are fixed and the board does not accept expansions, so play is limited to three or four players. The robber is a free piece, and the set is designed for play on a stable surface with dice rolled into the box top or a tray.
