So, here's the idea: you have a little paper map of Catan tiles, and six dice, with icons for wheat, ore, bricks, wood, sheep, and gold. Two gold icons are one wildcard. (In good light, the gold glitters. In poor lighting, it looks unfortunately like the black ore icon.)
You roll, you re-roll the dice you don't like a couple of times, you use the results to buy stuff. You try to accumulate a high score after 15 turns.
It's a fine solitare game. As a multi-player game, there is no in-game interaction at all: essentially, we passed the dice around the table, taking turns at our independent solitare games.
Here's an example of the level of strategy: For an ore-wheat-sheep, you can buy a "knight", which gives you a single resource you can use later on. In an interesting twist, the first two knights you buy give you ore and wheat, resources you'll need for cities. If you use them quickly, it makes getting cities later in the game harder.
You know the really slow guy, who takes for-ev-er on his turn at Settlers of Catan? This is a fine game to play while you're waiting for him to take his turn.
