Why it works
At four they can already play it properly: you draw a tile, put it where it fits and, when a road is closed off, each player places their figures. There is no reading and no counting points; whoever runs out of figures first wins. Games last about twenty minutes, just right for their patience.
Our verdict
One of the best ways for a four or five-year-old to start on games that involve some decisions. From eight, Catan Junior or Labyrinth offer more.
