A friend of mine posted this to Facebook, and I think it is fits in well here:
Settlers of Catan: How a German Board Game Went Mainstream - Scott Keyes - Entertainment - The Atlantic
I haven't reviewed Settlers of Catan; it's on my radar. For now, I will just say that it is not only a great game, but a definitive game, for families and friends.
It's Your Move
What I am doing when I am not doing what's expected of me - a blog for family and casual gaming. I firmly believe all games are educational games in some manner. Board games create friendships, build families and teach social skills. This site is dedicated to helping families and friends find great family games and casual games to play.
