Catan Junior

Players collect and trade five island resources to build ships, lairs and other structures on a modular island board. The game supports two to four players with a double-sided board that changes setup and interaction for two-player versus three- to four-player games. On a turn, players roll for resource production, trade resources with others or the market, and spend resources to place ships and build lairs to expand control of the islands. A parrot token blocks production, and special gold islands and life rings alter strategic options. The first player to reach the required number of warehouses wins.
