Wired Magazine on Settlers and Klaus Teuber

I finally read an article from the April issue of Wired magazine, titled "Monopoly Killer". This is a very good article about the boardgame Settlers of Catan, and its creator, Klaus Teuber. It gives the history of the game, the context of the game as helping to launch a revival in board-gaming, the significant strength in this industry that the Germans have, and much more.

I especially enjoyed this article because I play Settlers with my family, having been introduced to it many years ago by my college friends. Actually, we haven't played Settlers very much lately, as we've also gotten hooked on another contemporary game, Ticket to Ride. I highly recommend both games, and perhaps I'll write about them more in the future.
