Pioneers is a wonderfully addicting game based on "The Settlers of Catan" by Klaus Teuber (The 1995 German Game of the Year).

The players in the game represent the eponymous settlers, establishing a colony on the previously uninhabited island of Catan. The island itself is laid out randomly at the beginning of each game from hexagonal tiles ("hexes") of different land types. Numbered tokens are then placed on each of the tiles, except for one desert hex.
