If pollution levels go too high, the game ends for everyone. It's a fun escape!

Ugh, more Catan?

I'm with you, friend. Catan is a gateway board game into heavier games but it has been largely replaced by wingspan. Mechanically, it's a little too antagonistic and rng based to be an amazing new player option when there are so many better ones.

Idk if people out there love Catan more power to em I suppose but no matter what you are into there is probably something out there you will like more

Catan was my gateway game 25 years ago, and I really liked the Cities and Knights expansion as it felt like a logical progression. After that I lost interest in all the variations that came out. I still have the first two on my shelf and play them occasionally though.
