My wife and I love being able to play one of our favorite games with more friends. The island fills up a lot faster making it a little more difficult and more challenging for your strategy. Just make sure you mark the pieces that belong to this set so that they don't get mixed up with the orginal 4 players set.

This is a pretty basic expansion pack; pretty much exactly what you'd expect. It simply makes Settlers of Catan playable by 5-6 players (the original box is for 3-4 players). More players can make the game more fun (more people to trade with and whatnot), but it does make the game longer, which is not a problem for most people.

If you game with other couples. No doubt you need an expansion for settlers. This is it. The downside is that it slows the game down terribly. More players equals more decisions and more downtime between turns. But if you got six. You got six. So get the expansion. But if you want to play a better 6 player game, play transamerica, or carcassone with expansions.

Good luck!
