What are your favorite board games? Me and my friends love playing board games, but I get the feeling their tired of playing the same things. What do you guys usually play? My favorite board game of all time is HeroQuest. I never get tired of playing it. Also love Catan, Arkham Horror, Betrayal House on the Hill, Spyfall (great at parties)

    We play all the dune games at work. The new remake of 1978, done betrayal and dune imperium. And sometimes twilight imperium.

    With friends we have bought spirit island, which is fun but really difficult. We also play dead of winter and some DND spinniof games. My mate works at a Games Store so he has lots of games i haven’t played yet. Oh and I’ve joined a poker home game.

    My favourite is twilight imperium if we can ever find enough people who can spend their whole day playing a game.

      You have (in my opinion) a great taste in games.
      There’s nothing quite like a session of TI. It doesn’t get on the table a lot but the few times it does it’s amazing every time.

      Unfortunately I personally get to play big games all to seldom as I mostly play with my SO and she prefers them a bit lighter and with a bit less conflict. Some of the games we’ve enjoyed and played recently 2 player…

      Viticulture is the one we fall back on alot of the time. It really is a great worker placement.

      Castles of Burgundy is a new one in our collection but probably not new to a lot of people in the hobby. Really don’t know why I’ve not picked this up earlier because it is a really good game.

      If we want to go for something fast we usually bring out Azul. No setup time and no teardown is a trait I value more now than I have in the past. Sure Gloomhaven is fun but the setup alone makes me want to cry.

        If you haven’t tried it, I’d recommend Cascadia for a couples game. Also, Tuscany adds some pleasant complexity to Viticulture … Not that you were asking for recommends, I just couldn’t resist…

          Tuscany is already in there and It really does make a good game great. 😁
          I’ll be sure to check out Cascadia!
