The ports don't line up the way they are on my Catan board. The app may place the clay port with both points in the same clay hex. On my board it comes out that only one point lines up to clay hex and the other goes to the neighbouring hex. Still playable but would be great if you can fix it. Edit: Thanks for responding. Looking forward to the change. Rating upgraded.

This app is great for setting up Catan games, just hit the generate button until you find a layout you like. I've only used it for the base (3-4 player) version but it does exactly what it should.

Fantastic app, bought the premium version immediately. One suggestion, is it possible to put the numbers 6 and 8 in red? And add the probability dots underneath the numbers?

I have the 5th edition of Catan, where the sea is a frame with fixed locations for the harbours. It would be useful to have the option to keep the harbours in the fixed positions when shuffling the pieces.

Use this app for every game we play. Impressive how quickly a balanced board is generated while very easy to view. It would be even better with the Traders & Barbarians scenario with the wagons. Maybe in the future we could have the ability to mix and match different scenarios?

Developers please comment, and consider improving the following issues soon for better rating: 1) add holding the "generate" button to lock it, because for mist and fog scenarios it is easy to accidentally regenerate the map; 2) match the coloring of the tiles with the paper prints; 3) add initial settlement placement suggestions; 4) add other Catan expansions. This is a good app, it let's you generate the map for different scenarios, and roll the dices, keeping the turn time.

About this app

Catan Assist is a board generator and dice simulator for the board game Settlers of Catan, Seafarers, Traders & Barbarians, and Cities & Knights.

The board generator is designed to create a fair and engaging game of Catan. Play on the original board or select one of the 30 Seafarers scenarios for either 3-4 players or 5-6 players or one of the 6 scenarios for the Traders & Barbarians expansion. All scenarios are available in the free version.

The board generator contains multiple algorithms that you can use to create a game the suits your needs:
• Place resources non-adjacent to the same type or place them randomly,
• Distribute the numbers fairly over the board or place them randomly,
• Place the ports close to, or far from their resource or place them randomly.

The dice simulator can be used to reduce the luck factor during the game. By reducing the probability for numbers that have occurred more frequently than expected, the game will contain less luck and become more strategic. Of course, the amount by which the "luck is filtered" can be adjusted and by setting it to zero is becomes a completely normal game again.


Please note: This is not the Settlers of Catan game, it is a tool to improve the gameplay of the board game Settlers of Catan, Seafarers, Traders & Barbarians, and Cities & Knights.
