TRANSMISSION LOG

YEAR 2700

You have been selected to compete for the prestigious title of Ambassador to the Galactic Council

Not just anyone can become Ambassador—you must earn fame and glory by leaving the known universe behind. Delve deep into the unknown, discover new solar systems, meet new extraterrestrial lifeforms and use your diplomacy so they will aid you with their powers. As you explore the space in-between, you’ll encounter wormholes, merchants, pirates, and more. All of this is made easier with the right upgrades to your ship.

BACK FROM THE VOID

Catan Starfarers returns with an exciting new take. A new variable board and a modular discovery system create a tremendous increase in breadth of play – adding an element of surprise. The system has been streamlined and updated to get you into the action right away so you can blast off into adventure.

BUILD YOUR OWN SPACESHIP

Discover the joy of tricking out your Starfarers mothership. Add boosters to fly faster, lock on freight pods to increase your bargaining power and diplomacy, and outfit cannons to scare off pirates. You’ll also use the unique shaking mechanism to determine your moves and encounters.

DEEP SPACE MYSTERY

What lies in the outer reaches of space? It’s a race to find out, as you explore and reveal uninhabited solar systems. Will they be rich in resources to help you on your journey?

SURPRISES AND ADVENTURES

Even in the vast void of space, you may cross paths with alien cultures—merchants, friends, or even pirates. (And you thought you left the pirates back on the seas around Catan.) Are these travelers friends or foes? Choose a path and find out!

Catan Starfarers™ is designed for 3-4 players, aged 14 and up. Playtime is approximately 120 minutes.
