If you’re looking for board games designed with preschool and elementary-school kids in mind, take a look at our guide to board games we love for kids. (Board game publishers print games in limited runs, so if you can’t find one of our picks at a major retailer, a local shop may have it to buy or to play.)Īlthough our picks are geared toward adults, most are family-friendly. And, for more ideas, we encourage you to explore board game forums and to visit your local board game café, store, or bar for personalized recommendations based on your skill level and interests. We didn’t include old-school classics (like Monopoly) or challenging enthusiast fare (like Scythe, which we do love), but our Competition section lists many other notable games. This guide is a starting point to discovering games that are fun, interactive, and challenging, and our picks are a great introduction for anyone looking to get more into games. To find some of the best, we spent 70 hours researching 128 games, played 17 top contenders with 26 people, and interviewed board game experts, including a Columbia University ludology professor, the owner of board game café The Brooklyn Strategist, and the team behind The Rules Girl video series.īoard games are for everyone, so we have picks for new gamers and more-advanced players for those seeking party games, two-player games, or games to play when you’re out with friends and for those who prefer cooperative play to competition.
