Ratings and Reviews
Exactly what you want
I play Catan all the time and always seem to waste time when setting up the board. We always want to randomly fling the resource hexes out there and play them where they fall, but always end up rearranging to make things more balanced, arguing over what should go where. This saves you all the wasted time. PLUS if you still want everything to be completely random, you can. It also helps you setup for those complex seafarer expansions that I never am able to make fee balanced. Amazing app.
Awesome app
This app is great not only does it generate a map for Catan and the expansion with numbers but it also has a good quality look to it not some clip art trash. I love this app and will not play without it because of how simple it makes the game setup and fairness of gameplay for all players. This app is great, something that would be interesting to add a feature to choose a rare ore gameplay, maybe potentially have a generator for seafarers and other expansions.
Great app
I use this whenever there is a board game night and Catan is on the menu. I add a little more randomness to it by rolling a die and hitting the “generate” that many pips. Would like to see maybe some of the re-themed ones on here also like Star Trek and Game Of Thrones. 👍
