User Reviews

Users praise Catanous for ease of use, quick map generation, and variety, with good visuals and expansion-related options. However, multiple reviews highlight missing features: no 5-6 player support or full Seafarers maps, limited customization and rule options (filters for number distribution and port adjacency), and harbor layouts that don’t match current editions. Some also cite value concerns and refunds. Overall, the app shines on usability and variety, but expansion support and precise rule customization remain the main drawbacks.

Pros

Easy to use and quick to generate maps.
Unlimited, varied maps that keep gameplay fresh.
Saves setup time and helps ensure fair, balanced boards.
Visually polished with a clean look; supports Seafarers maps.

Cons

No option for 5-6 players or full Seafarers maps, limiting expansion play.
Harbor/port layouts do not align with current Catan editions, reducing accuracy.
Limited customization and rules options (filters for number distribution, port adjacency, etc.).
Expansion support feels incomplete; some users feel it's overpriced or only tile-changing, not full maps.

Recent reviews

Should be some more settings rules and cofigs: 1. A resource should not be next to it’s corresponding port. 2. Two resources should not have the same number tile: not 6 on two different rock tiles. Just these 2 alone would go a long way.
