5 out of 5 starsRyan is the Michelangelo of Catan Boards. Not an opinion; an incontestable fact.
Use of this exalted board ain't gonna increase my win probability, but it sure makes my matchplay experience richer! -

5 out of 5 starsThe game arrived sooner than I expected, and the original game pieces look great with the board. The seller is also great at making sure I got what I actually wanted (originally tried to purchase the 5-6 player expansion set, but I actually wanted the base set). The board looks better than the pictures!

5 out of 5 starsGreat board! Great workmanship!
We received it a few days after ordering it.
All the pieces fit well together and are perfectly interchangeable.
The design of the different resource centers is great.
When we played on it the other day, the kids say it felt like playing a different game!
Very happy with it. Keith -

5 out of 5 starsI had already purchased the basic set as a gift for my boyfriend (who was OVER THE MOON about it), and he was just as excited to get the expansion pack! There’s no going back to a standard issue board once you’ve played on the Board Genius board. The craftsmanship is incredible, everything fits together perfectly, and it shipped quickly. A must-have for any big Catan fans!!
About TheBoardGenius
Catan or Rocket Science?
I have played Catan for many years, but have always been frustrated by the standard board. One day a friend and I decided to make a laser-cut/laser-engraved board for ourselves. After finding a laser that could do the job, we spent many hours/days/months perfecting the board. After several years, and numerous "do you sell these?" questions, I finally decided to try and actually sell them. And that's how The Board Genius was born!
Even though my day job is in aerospace engineering, I've always enjoyed doing creative and artistic projects, especially working with wood. I also enjoy getting friends together for board game nights or the occasional LAN party.
It's been a lot of work putting together The Board Genius, but it's also been lots of fun and very rewarding! I hope that I can continue to do this for a long time!

Just passed the two year anniversary of working at The Board Genius and haven't looked back; I do whatever needs to be done around the lab with the laser cutter or at the spray booth. Outside this, I go to university and watch all the movies I can.

Frequently asked questions
Custom and personalized orders
We do not do custom orders aside from the personalized engraving and the red numbers for our plywood sets. Every piece is made with lots of attention and detail, with a long process from start to finish, so it would simply take too much time to design a new piece!
5-6 player boards
Our 5-6 player expansion sets are compatible with our 3-4 player ones, but they do not include the 3-4 base set. In order to get the full 5-6 set, you will need to order BOTH the 3-4 and 5-6.
