The collection initially consists of 16 board games plus 3 expansions with the spirit of expanding to cover a wide range of recreational and educational options.

We have made an indicative classification of the depth of the games depending on the complexity and duration of the same. The introductory games they represent simple rules and quick matches; the intermediate games have a medium duration and may have some complexity of rules or strategies and, finally, the advanced or expert games they have a long duration and complex rules to follow and are not suitable for all audiences.

In the tab of each game you can also find the publisher's instructions related to the number of players, the approximate duration of a game and the minimum recommended age. 

The summary accompanying the descriptions is taken from editorial and commercial pages.

Catan Navigators is Catan's first large box expansion. It was designed in 1998 and with it we will discover many new options for our Catan games. One of the most interesting novelties of Navegants de Catan is the fact that, from this expansion, the creation of the initial scenario, which was already very diverse in the original game, becomes something even more varied, already that Catan will no longer always be a single island, but can become a whole archipelago of small islands. In order to be able to move between these islands and access all the territories, we will have another basic innovation, the ships. Each player will have fifteen ships that he can combine with normal roads to move around the board. In addition, you will always have the option of moving the last of the ships placed on a sea route that is not yet closed between two towns or cities, to change its strategy. These combined routes of ships and roads serve to choose to be the holder of the charter of the Great Commercial Route and the two points of victory that it grants.

It's the era of exploration! With the Mediterranean under Ottoman control, the Portuguese are looking for alternative routes to the Indies in search of gold, spices and other goods. Better ships and a centralization of power help the Portuguese launch themselves into the Atlantic and explorers such as Prince Henry, Bartholomew Diaz and Basque of Gamma set sail.

In Rumb in India, players take on the role of patrons, noble families who organize naval expeditions, with the aim of helping adventurers find the best routes to India, reaping great riches and prestige in the process. .

Therefore, players will have to manage their resources and workers carefully, as they only have two actions per turn. Each available worker will be able to be dedicated to one function at a time, whether managing money or victory points, acquiring or selling different resources or sailing to India. It is possible for the same worker to perform many different functions throughout the game.

Heading to India is simple in components and mechanics, but complex in its strategy. Without any chance, it is not as light as it might seem and offers a very interesting development in terms of duration.

A great little game that can be used both as a great introduction to resource management games or as a lightweight but challenging alternative for veteran players. And portable!

It is a fully cooperative and real-time underwater warfare board game during World War II. It allows 1 to 4 players to take on the role of captain, first officer, navigator and engineer on board a VIIC-type submarine. The game is developed thanks to a complementary application that must be downloaded, which allows an unprecedented level of realism, as well as a challenging enemy Artificial Intelligence. This app introduces ambient sounds, changing weather conditions, and more. The action is developed both on a strategic and tactical scale, always requiring teamwork, efficient crew management and a quick assessment of the situation.

Players will take command of a submarine with which they will have to carry out the missions entrusted to them by the German High Command. These missions may require players to locate and destroy enemy convoys, escape the siege extended by their allies, or manage to break a naval blockade, among many others. Each player will take control of one of the four available roles, each with unique roles. Each of these functions carries specific responsibilities, encouraging players to develop an efficient communication scheme and to use true naval terminology. The captain oversees the fulfillment of mission objectives, oversees costs at action points, and is responsible for the morale of the crew. The First Officer operates the accompanying application, handles the flow of information and takes care of the health of the crew. The Navigator directs the submarine by setting its course and depth, but also updates all the essential information on the strategic and tactical map.

Last but not least, there is the chief engineer, who is responsible for the engines, repairs and other mechanical implements on board the submarine (such as ballast tanks, weapon systems, etc.). At the same time, each of the four officers commands his own group of crew by issuing orders within a worker placement system.
