Game Ratings for Catan Universe Video Game.
Screen Rant: 3.5 / 5 by Ty Sheedlo
It's a strange new way to play the friendship-ending board game, acting as more of a digital alternative to the physical version than a replacement.
Metro GameCentral: 6 / 10 by Lucy Orr
A fun and accessible introduction to the world of Catan but technical failings and a lack of options mean it's not quite the adaptation it could've been.
Nindie Spotlight: 5.7 / 10 by Justin Nation
Lacking value-added features or even intuitive controls this feels like a stilted replacement for the in-person experience
