#THE BEST THE SETTLERS GAME UPGRADE#
The starter account allows you to play the base game, but if you are looking for more, you can always upgrade your plan.
Like with any other online game, you are required to register for an account here, free of charge.
The only elements that remain unchanged are the top toolbar and the bottom chat panel. The score is automatically calculated and the statistics are shown at the bottom of the player’s icon. Once you join a game, the window will transform to match the classic “The Settlers of Catan” setting: the main area displays the game board, the players are placed in the corners, and on the bottom left corner you can view your playing tools (Roll Dice, Trade, Build, and End Turn). Here you can view the available Catan games, join/watch one, and even start your own (the "Open Up" button). If you are in the tavern, click on the game table to open the games panel. The Pla圜atan main area is reserved for browsing your current location in the game. The top toolbar contains most account and location management tools, the chat panel is placed on the bottom, the bottom left corner map indicates your location, and the right side panel allows you to view other players’ statistics and create a friends list. The Pla圜atan main window design tries to preserve the original game atmosphere but also keeps everything quite organized.

The Pla圜atan Access Software installer places the game in your home directory, which can be a bit confusing for Mac users accustomed with the /Applications folder as the default installation location for their apps, but you can always create an alias for easy access. The Pla圜atan Access Software requires Java 1.5 or later, the upside being that it can run on most Macs, old or new, from OS X 10.5 onward to Mountain Lion.

To avoid all this, you can download and install the Pla圜atan Access Software and play Catan using a desktop client. The problem when using Safari is the fact that you need to enable the Java plug-in to run the game. The website recommends using Safari, which makes sense if you need to keep an eye on your resources (during play, Firefox, for example, used up to 90% of the processor). The official website for “The Settlers of Catan” allows you to play the game with other people online ( here), directly from your browser. The online version of “The Settlers of Catan” offers you the possibility to enjoy yourself whenever you have the time and make new friends who share your favorite pastime. Game nights can be very relaxing, although it's not always easy to find people who have the same interests as you.
