I have 5 & 6 year old girls, do you think their age could handle this game? Could they play it without adult supervision? How much reading is there?

They would be able to handle it themselves...once they understand the rules. Though this is the Junior version of the game, there are still a few rules. My 7 year old kind of makes things up he doesn't remember when I'm not playing, but he still has a good time with his friends that are around his same age. If you're willing to play it a few times to help them learn the rules, then this game would be enjoyable to them by themselves. There's not much reading once you know the rules. Just rolling the dice and moving your pieces depending on what you roll.

Will the extension work for the expansions as well? say i wanted to add more player to seafarers

yeah if you don't get this 5-6 player expansion you won't have the main pieces to play the 5th and 6th players in seafarers. however if you just want to play four players, you can with seafarers expansion... there are also a 1-4 version of seafarers, and a 5-6 extension of seafers. so you need to buy 4 things to play seafers with 6 players. sorry if that doesn't make sense i think i did like the crappiest job of explaining..

My base Catan is the 3rd edition (off-white box, with red sides and the crest in the upper left). Will this expansion work with the 3rd edition?

The changes are all aesthetic. The card backs and tiles have different art work, so your board/pieces will look mismatched and the cards will look different. But they can be used together.

Is there an easy way to tell which pieces belong to which set (for ease of separating the two afterwards, if I want to go back to 3-4 people again)?

An easy way my family has always done it is, after opening the expansion pack (or determining what is part of the expansion pack if you have already opened it) is we put a small E on the back of the expansion pack pieces, and then keep them in a separate package as well.

good quick travel game

we play the full size Catan games and this is perfect as a quick game which isn't difficult to learn and incorporates a lot of the elements in the basic full size game. Could do with a travel case though.

Good travel version

Mini ish version of the board game. Enjoyed playing it but there’s a set route so not as much freedom as the original board game.

Very good.

Excellent. Played this on holiday very easily and it's quite quick unlike board game. My 13y son enjoyed it and became ridiculously quick at working out the best strategies and purchases to make to beat his parents.

A mini Catan in your pocket wherever you go!

Highly addicting game. Played throughout a whole vacatiom with family. Very easy to learn and very mobile. Perfect game to replace a full board game of Catan but still have the same essence about it!

Good introduction to Catan

I bought this for a 12yo child to play on a family road trip. Overall it's pretty good. It's a decent introduction to the Catan family of games. It's well-suited to a quick play, say while waiting for a meal. It is easy to learn and the instructions are pretty clear. There is some strategy to the game, but it hasn't grabbed my son's interest as much as I would have hoped.
