Toys and Games Reviews of Settlers of Catan River Tile
Customer Review: Great? No. Good? Meh.
Summary: 3 Stars
Aside from making the game take a little longer to get going, this didn't really bring much to the table. You can't immediately build on the 3 new tiles. This, in essence, makes the beginning board function as though there are 3 desert tiles instead of just the 1, which limits initial play spaces and also makes certain resources more scarce. This can be a good and a bad thing. Bad for obvious reasons. Good because there's generally a player that takes off at a running start and looks like the clear winner in most rounds of Catan. This levels the playing field a bit in the beginning. There are bonus points to be won for playing on the new tiles later in the game. But, again, this didn't add much depth or change the overall strategy, the way (for instance) the excellent and cheap Fishermen of Catan expansion does. Two more things that irked me about this expansion were the facts that the addition of the 3 new tiles makes for a board that doesn't fit together as snuggly as the original and (most importantly) that the instructions for this expansion are printed on the back of the 3 new tiles; making it almost impossible to know the rules in the middle of a game without deconstructing the board momentarily. All that said however, this is still Settlers of Catan and this expansion makes for an interesting change of pace; even if it's rarely going to be used. There are better expansions to be had. But that doesn't make this terrible. It's merely so-so comparatively.
Description of Settlers of Catan River Tile
This expansion consists of a tile with 3 hex and a river. Every single construction on the side of this river is a goldpoint. Each 3 goldpoints worth one victory point. All the other rules are the same of the usual game - except you may require more victory points to win the game.Games Toys
