About the game

What you do in a play session

Catan Scenarios: Easter Bunny is a fun expansion that adds a Páscoa twist to the classic board game Catan, bringing plenty of strategy and holiday spirit. Part of the Brettspiel Adventskalender 2015, it can also be used as a standalone supplement for up to six players and any expansion that includes the robber. The premise is simple: the Easter Bunny is hunting for wool to make a new coat and to keep the elves warm. If you give wool to the bunny on your turn, you can move him to a hex on Catan’s island. When he arrives, he hands out Christmas gifts to settlers and can even drive the robber away or protect a hex, shifting the resource balance and negotiation dynamics. This mechanic turns wool—normally the least valuable commodity in the base game—into a strategic asset, encouraging players to plan their wool usage carefully. The scenario keeps all the classic Catan mechanics—random production, network building, trade, and negotiation—while adding a surprise element and humor with the Easter character. The modular board ensures each game feels fresh, while dice, hand management, and route building keep the action engaging and tactical. In short, Catan Scenarios: Easter Bunny is perfect for Catan fans who want a new, festive twist without overcomplicating things.
