CatanxZo
Welcome to the Island
In this parallel layer of Zo World, power isn’t measured in coins or chips — it’s built in settlements, cities, and roads.
Catan is our diplomatic battlefield: resources are your currency, trade is your diplomacy, and the path to victory is paved in wheat, brick, wood, ore, and sheep.
Catan grew from a search for the perfect balance of competition and collaboration into a full-fledged culture. Sessions aren’t just games — they’re shared stories of smart trades, bold builds, and last-minute turnarounds that bond the community.

Activities
