You need the base game with this to play! This adds to the Catan base game so up to two more people can play (total of 5-6) with the separately purchased base game. This is a great add-on so our family of 5 can have family fun time together. Grandma is visiting right now and all 6 of us played earlier today, and are going to play again this evening. It's great family fun with constant variety. We plant to purchase expansion packs and their corresponding 5-6 player extensions to add even greater variety. Everyone in the family agrees that Catan makes our family fun time much more fun than watching movies or TV together. You get frame extenders, additional game board hexes, additional port pieces, a complete set of number rounds for the larger board, additional resource cards, additional development cards, and game pieces & building cost cards for 2 players. Note: the game board photo I've included is this 5-6 player extension WITH the base Catan game board.

Fantastic game and product, but given the content, there is absolutely no way this extension should cost more than the original Catan set.

We often have large family gatherings around the holidays and it's always been frustrating to only be able to play settlers with 4 of us...this was the first year we had the 5-6 player extension and it was awesome! We didn't notice any negative effects on gameplay, it seemed to be a seamless addition to the game. We were a little bummed that we couldn't play with any of our expansion packs with this (being that they are only for 4 players), but we plan on buying the 5-6 player extensions for our other packs as well!

Packaging came well done. The box had all of its content and the game is so much fun. So glad to finally own Catan! It is a little a bulky so make sure to have space to put it somewhere the box is sturdy enough to be placed underneath a stack. The only issue I had could find that isn't really an issue is that when I was popping put some of the tile pieces I had to be careful as not to do it too quickly because the paper that had the design would tear a bit on the tile. Great game a must have for any gaming library!

Really fun game, but it's been out forever. At this point the base game should have 5-6 players included. Shouldn't have to spend an extra $20-$30 for how little you get in the box.

Bought this with the original game. They both came quickly and in perfect condition. Everything came with it, including hours of trading sheep for wood, and stealing brick. If you haven't played in a while, you will notice the tiles are a slightly different design from the original, but they taste the same, but to be clear, the wood tiles do not taste like wood, and the wheat tiles do not grind into flour for baking. However, the sheep tiles do make good pets.

This game rocks. My husband and I play it two players all the time. It's great for groups too. It's fun because you can still do something during the other players' turns. So you aren't just sitting there waiting. We plan on buying all of the expansions. Of you want more fun add on with EXPANSIONS. If you want to play with more than 5 people you need EXTENSIONS. We didn't realize that and bought extensions first before we had the expansions.

If you love Catan and have a lot of friends who want to play, then you will need this pack. It works well and has good instructions on what to do.

Played this for the first time over Thanksgiving weekend. I liked that it added more pieces so that more of us could play at the same time. It still feels a little too small for 6 players though. We seemed to have a lot of players that were boxed in and could not move to build anywhere. By the end of the game we still had a few players that only had the two starting settlement locations. Other than being a little too small seems like a good expansion for the base game.
