Let’s build a commercial road

“Catan – Logic Puzzles” is a mental stimulating game for one person of 8 years or older, in which towns and villages must be connected by trade routes in 40 levels. You have to avoid obstacles like rivers and deserts and keep dangerous thieves in check with your knights.

At the beginning of the game, a puzzle card is selected to be solved. On the one hand, the trade routes to be built were printed at this level. On the other hand, the puzzle card also shows where the villages, cities, thieves and obstacles should be placed on the hexagonal game board.

Once that is done, you can start. The goal now is to connect all cities and villages with trade routes. However, there are some things to keep in mind. First of all, it is always necessary to place all trade routes on the game board. In addition, certain laying rules must be observed, which will be explained in more detail below.

First of all, it is important to know that each section of the trade route represents one of the five known raw materials of “Catan”. Similar to dominoes, the different resources may not be placed next to each other.

In addition, the resources should not be close to the thieves, otherwise the thief will steal them. Knights should always be tied to thieves, if any.

If a person takes all this into account and makes sure that they put the trade routes correctly, the puzzle card is flipped over and the display is compared with the solution. If everything is correct, you can proceed with the next step.
