Catan Preserves Our Future In New Crop Trust Scenario

October 10, 2018 by brennon

The Catan team has joined forces with the Crop Trust to design a new semi-cooperative scenario for those playing this stalwart of the board game world.

This new scenario for the game has you trying to harvest crops from the world of Catan in order to support your own goals but also make sure that some of them get preserved within the Seed Vault.

You will be trying to achieve your own win conditions but if you harvest too many of the world's resources then everyone loses and the world faces extinction. The scenario is designed to simulate the effects we're having on the planet and also teach folks about this in the same breath.

As part of their work alongside the Crop Trust Royalties and a profit, contribution go to them, so every sale helps safeguard the precious building blocks of global agriculture.

This new scenario will be available in November so watch this space if it hits your soft and gooey ecowarrior centre.
