Hex Board generates fair, balanced maps for your physical board, tracks who really wins across the year, and rolls the dice for you — less time setting up, more time playing.

⬡ Classic (19 hex) and 5–6 player (30 hex) maps with the exact tile and number counts of the physical Catan game
🌀 Tiles scatter onto the table with a satisfying physics-style animation
⚖️ Placement rules that actually work: 6 & 8 apart, 2 & 12 apart, same numbers apart, same resources apart — plus a balanced-distribution mode that avoids unfair "hotspot" corners
🎲 Built-in dice roller — leave the physical dice in the box
🔗 Share any map with a short code — friends load the exact same board on their phone
🏆 A score board built for game groups: named players (no accounts needed), monthly and yearly leaderboards, who won most in which month, win streaks
☁️ Optional sign-in: sync your boards and share them by invite code — guests can view shared boards without an account
🌙 Modern dark design, available in English, Turkish, German, French and Spanish

Set up your Catan board in seconds, settle the "unfair map" argument before it starts, and find out who your group's true champion really is.
