This was recommended to me as an adult game, but my 7 year old daughter loves it and she's pretty good too. It keeps everyones attention and we have a great time playing.
The one issue would be the borders and ease that the tabs can get bent or begin to peel.

I saw the board game Settlers of Catan at Barnes and Nobles. Curious at its bold claim of a fun, strategy game of trade which won Game of the Year, I went online and played it for free. Soon I was hooked and paid the $[...] for the board game version. My family enjoyed the game as much as I did, and we have spent many hours playing.
One of the biggest appeals is that the game is never the same as the board tiles change randomly each time, leading to endless replay. The strategy which helped you win last time may not be the best option in the next game.
Besides the original game, there are many variations and expansions which deeply enhance game play.

a fantastic game. it blends strategy, luck, and player vs. player gameplay really well. it's very well-designed. you may have perfect strategy, but the factor of luck the dice provides may slow your plans. or you may have a poor strategy, but the dice can be on your side. the randomization makes the game different everytime.
you win by getting 10 points from building different structures and/or getting bonus victory points. building requires resources which are gained by the lucky roll of the 2 dice. for any of your buildings that are touching the number that was rolled, you get those resource cards to add to your hand. 6s and 8s are statistically the most common numbers rolled, besides 7s. 2s and 12s, on the other hand, are the hardest to roll, so setting up around good numbers at the beginning is important. when a 7 is rolled, the roller can move the robber onto a number on the board which will make that part of the board not produce resources until the robber is moved elsewhere. it also means the roller can steal a resource card from 1 of the other players that has buildings touching that part of the board. and if anybody has 8 or more cards must lose half of their resource cards too. and of course 7 is statistically the most common # rolled, so the game can be a rollercoaster. and finally, during your turn, you can trade your resource cards 4 to 1 of the same type, or 3 to 1 or 2 to 1 depending on what trading port you have access too. better yet, you can trade with other players on your turn too. what's cool about that is the players get to name the terms. for example, you can say "i'll give you 1 card for 2 of your cards." the strategy is simple but greatly variable.
when you get used to the game, try the Catan: Cities & Knights Expansion, which adds many more dimensions that make it even more fun. the way the game is designed leaves it open to virtually unlimited expansion, even your own.

This is a fantastic game which has simple enough rules not to spend forever trying to learn and varied enough for some very challenging and fun games. I especially like it with the cities and knights expansion which adds a whole new layer. The game board does shift easily which makes it difficult to play with cats around.
