The game was a gift for our son's 5th birthday. He had recently 'The Settlers of Catan Junior' (old version) played for the first time and was delighted ... It was supposed to be about the new junior version, but as a fan of Madagascar and at an unbeatable price of 12 it was this. Of course, the game was equal unpacked and tested. Our son was very quickly back into play by the rules a, beat time with the police officer and had great joy of the game. Even us adults makes it much more fun. That now in addition to the 3-4Spieler also a 2 player variant (pitch back) is possible, also like it very much. The extent to which this variation ultimately different from the 'normal' Junior version, I do not like to judge, but I find this a great introduction to the settlers world!
