    Fun game for kiddos!
    My 12yr old and 6yr old love to play this together. It was easy enough for even the 6yr old to understand the rules and the basic concept, but still a challenging game play for even the 12yr old too. They are developing their strategy skills, thinking about how their move effects the future of their success (or failure) in the game. It’s a lot fun! This photo is the very 1st time we played. Our 6yr old WON! I like how the resources in this version are very thick and not easily bent all up. It seems like it will hold up very well for a very long time! Nicely made! Sometimes my husband and I play with them, but more often, the kids play this Jr version while adults play the adult version at the same time. Our dining table isn’t used for meals… it’s the Catan game table!

      Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2025
      Verified Purchase
      My older kids first played Catan Junior at a campout with friends and couldn’t stop talking about it — so we had to get our own copy! It’s such a fun, kid-friendly version of the classic Catan game. The pirate theme makes it exciting, and the gameplay is simple enough for younger kids to learn while still keeping older ones engaged. Pretty sure my husband loves it the most!

      They love collecting resources, building pirate lairs, and figuring out their next moves. I love that it sneaks in strategic thinking, patience, and even a little math — all while they’re just having fun.

      It’s great for family game night, doesn’t drag on too long, and the quality is solid. If your kids are around 6–10 (even my 5 year old crushes it) and you want a screen-free game the whole family can enjoy, this one’s a winner!

      I played Catan original with friends and family a lot many years ago. I was very happy to discover the junior version. Its a learning experience for a 5 year old. I personally love the simple rules with few paths to win - build lairs or get a free lair by collecting coco cards.

      Only bummer is that my set has a ship piece missing from 1 of the colors.

      5.0 out of 5 stars Catan Junior Is A Very Fun Game For Parents Who Love The Original AND For Children Who Are New To The Series!
      Reviewed in Canada on March 9, 2016
      Verified Purchase
      My husband and I have been playing the full version of Settlers of Catan since 1999 or so. We are fans! When our own children were 6 and 8, we wanted them to start to learn the game. I looked around a bit trying to decide whether to buy Family Settlers or Catan Jr. Ultimately, I decided on Catan Jr., and I'm glad I did. The reviews I read seemed to indicate that the Family version wasn't much different than the original, and since I already have the original, it just seemed that Catan Jr. was more what I was looking for. It is indeed a different, much simpler game, but one that I think will allow our kids to transition to the regular version much easier than if we just tried to start them on the original. Both the 6 and 8 year old had no trouble understanding or playing the game, and my husband and I still really enjoy playing it, too.

      If you've never played Settlers of Catan but are looking for a new board game to play with the kids, I would still recommend this highly. It is a lot of fun! I will say that if I didn't already know how to play Settlers of Catan, I think I would have found it a bit challenging to understand and teach it the first time. Not to say that the directions are poor, they are sound, but there is just an ease of play when you already know the basics. I would recommend looking at an online tutorial for the game after you've read through the directions. I did, and I found it really helpful. I also found Catan.com a helpful resource in trying to decide which version to buy for the kids.

      The game pieces and board seem decently made, too. There are lot of thick, cardboard type pieces that look like they will wear well. The ships and lairs are plastic. I have always found Settlers of Catan a really pretty board game, and this one is attractive, too.

      My husband and I are big Catan fans. We have the basic game and a few extensions and expansions. We couldn't wait for our son to be old enough to play Catan junior. The game was a hit, he loves it and so do we. It's enjoyable for adults as well since it's not too simple but simple enough for a kid to understand. I would highly recommend this game.

      5.0 out of 5 stars Great introduction to Catan
      Reviewed in the United Kingdom on July 23, 2021

      My 5 year old loves board games and has watched the grown ups play Settlers of CATAN for a while now so we thought we would introduce him to the junior version.
      He understood the game mechanics straight away and loves playing it.
      The theme is pirate so the resources are a little different from the adult version, but it still incorporates most of it’s gameplay such as the ‘robber’ which in this case is a ‘captain’ and instead of building roads and cities you build ships and lairs or trade for Coco the Parrot tiles which is like the Development Cards.

      I wish it would give you the option of where to place your first lair and ship though as this is one of the main strategies in Settlers of CATAN and I don’t think it would’ve made it too hard for juniors.

      Overall, there’s not much room for strategy planning as much of it is down to luck but I guess as a junior game for my 5 year old, will do now.
      I expect he will outgrow it by the time he’s 7 though and move onto the proper game, but it is a great introductory game for him nevertheless.
