Catan Board Game Creator Klaus Teuber Passes Away at 70

Klaus Teuber, the creator of the popular board game Catan, has died at the age of 70 after a brief illness. The game, originally called The Settlers of Catan, has sold tens of millions of copies and is available in over 40 languages. Teuber never expected the game to become so successful and left his job as a dental technician in 1998 to focus on the game full-time. The Catan studio team has urged fans to honor Teuber's memory by being kind to one another, pursuing their creative passions, and enjoying a game with loved ones.
