About the game
What you do in a play session
If you're a fan of 7 Wonders and enjoy a touch of nostalgia, this mini-expansion is for you! 7 Wonders: Catan is a little treat that pays homage to the classic The Settlers of Catan, which also shone in the Kennerspiel des Jahres. This expansion brings a new element to your base game of 7 Wonders, adding an extra layer of strategy without overcomplicating the already familiar gameplay. It's like giving your favorite games a warm hug! The content is lean: a new Wonder to build, a card to randomize the Wonder, and a note from Catan's creator, Klaus Teuber. All of this is charmingly packaged, like a gift for collectors and the most dedicated fans. There's zero language dependency, so don't worry about that. This addition is perfect for those who want to experience something new in 7 Wonders without straying too far from the main experience. It's a cool way to celebrate two giants of modern board games, uniting the universe of 7 Wonders with the essence of Catan. If you're looking for something that brings a different flavor to your games, with a touch of history and tribute, 7 Wonders: Catan does its job well. It's one of those pieces that add sentimental and strategic value to your collection, without weighing down the table or game time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers before you buy
Do I need the base game 7 Wonders to play this expansion?
Absolutely! 7 Wonders: Catan is a mini-expansion, so it only works if you have the original 7 Wonders game.
How much additional playtime does this expansion add?
Very little! The expansion adds just one new Wonder, so the game time doesn't increase significantly. It's more of a seasoning than a radical change.
How many players can use this expansion?
The expansion is for 7 Wonders, so it works for the same player count as the base game: 2 to 7 players.
Does this expansion change the rules of 7 Wonders much?
No, the change is minimal. It adds a new Wonder with its own characteristics, but the game's core remains the same. It's a variation, not a revolution.
Is it difficult to incorporate this expansion into games?
Not at all! It's super simple. You just need to choose this new Wonder for one of the players, following the normal Wonder selection rules of the base game.
Is it worth buying just for the tribute to Catan?
If you're a big fan of both games and enjoy having collectible items with this theme, then yes! It's more of a sentimental item and a completionist's piece than an expansion that drastically changes the game.
