I think we all just appreciate how much deeper the gameplay becomes in comparison to the base game.Ĭarrie and I play Catan basically every other time we hang out, and having played it with her family, I could tell that the game itself was something she positively loved and specifically considered to be something she connected with her family (the Mackeviches and Zukrows). Can’t say the same about Seafarers, but that’s beside the point. Coincidentally, after being introduced to Cities and Knights through her, it’s probably my favorite too.
Settlers of Catan is her favorite board game, specifically the Cities and Knights expansion- in fact, her whole family feels the same way, and plays the game with her when she’s home. Hannukah, the New Year, our 1-year anniversary all fell within, like, a week or two of each other, so I decided to try and absolutely ruin my chances of being able to top a gift I give after a single year of dating by pooling every sentimental gift concept I had in mind together- the result was a game I would go on to make, The Settlers of Wilmette: Mackeviches and Zukrows. I absolutely love the hell out of her- simultaneously a low-key goofball but also the most down-to-earth and chill person I know. We met over Hinge in January of 2019 and, wouldn’t you know it, a dating app actually successfully brought two really compatible people together for once. My work isn’t necessarily in the spotlight for their videos, but honestly, I love finding ways to bring graphics to life, so it’s a job I absolutely love.
I mostly do short-form comedy cuts and motion graphics for a Dungeons & Dragons web show called Critical Role. I’m a pretty average mid-20s dude- I like video games and complaining about popular media online to an active follower base of about 6. My name is Max Schapiro and I’m a freelance editor out of the Los Angeles area. This is Settlers of Wilmette: A Catan Story. It is a story that has brought us lots of joy, joy that we wanted to pass on to you. Max Schapiro turned one of the Settlers of Catan expansions, Cities and Knights, into an incredibly personalized version of the game that went very deep. In a true act of love, generosity and ingenuity, a Los Angeles man painstakingly crafted something incredible for someone special to him. We witnessed something very special recently that reminded us that humans can be pretty alright.
