WHY CATAN IS SO SUCCESSFUL?
Klaus Teuber is the creator of “Catan”
This German had to focus on his Prowess to overcome the bankruptcy of his dentist office.
Catan has sold more than 20 million units and triumphs between the competition of today's videogames.
Teuber patented in 1995, the settlers of Catan, a strategy game that has been increasing quietly in followers and today accumulates more than 20 million units sold worldwide.
WHAT HAPPENED? The story behind:
At the beginning of the 90s, Klaus Teuber was ruined due to the family business - a modest dentist office in Darmstadt, a few kilometers from Frankfurt.
He explained,
The bank was going to seize the house and my father had health problems, the medical insurance of that time did not cover the treatments.
We did not have enough money because the dental prostheses that came from outside Germany were cheaper than the ones we were doing here.
The German was unable to face the problems and the only escape to ignore their problems was to lock himself in his room and do his hobby, design board games.
He created a first game . . .
