Catan is incredible for replayability. You can play 4000 games and each one will be different. Simple rules keep the game mechanics balanced but also allow for variation. (0 more)
This is a game to play with people who play board games. Catan won't be a party favorite if you and your friends don't usually play tabletop games. (0 more)
An absolute treasure for those who like tabletop games

'Evil High Priest is a unique take on the worker placement games that I enjoyed. I liked the balancing of getting vs. protecting resources, using your two different types of cultists on four different boards and, specifically, the race to shatter Elder Signs on the cult board.'

A great starter
This is a great game to determine if you will enjoy more story driven/intense board games. Easy to find and play, and very fun if you enjoy getting into the story of the board

I saw some guy took all the pieces and replaced them with scooby doo charectures, would that make the game better or worse?

Can anyone recommend some good two-player tabletop games, be it board, and, or dice games? I'm going to have surgery and will have a lot of downtime and don't want to spend it as a couch potato.

I like to play city building games online, like Banished, Civilization, and Sierra Impression Games (Pharaoh, Caesar, and Emporer) and have looked at a few board game versions but they look complicated and come with so many pieces. Are they manageable or will a cat coming into the room destroy the game with a swipe of its tail? My roommate doesn't play games yet so it would have to be a game that isn't overly complex or complicated to a newbie or a highly-medicated me.

We also like Scrabble, word puzzles, and trivia games but are looking for similar games. We've played Uno (which is now forever known as F-U/No, F-U, haha) and Yahtzee. So traditional board, card, and dice would be nice. We like mystery, paranormal, and educational games, not big on fantasy, sci-fi, sports, or anything chaotic.

I'm also hoping to find games my boyfriend and I can play kind of mindlessly to do in the background while we chat about life and tell stories. I'm really needing some good intimate (not sexual) discussion.

All advice appreciated.

Seven Wonders Duel is a pretty good, medium-complex card game. Splendor and Carcassonne also both work well with two and they're a little simpler and possibly more cat-proof too.

Any regular reader of Board Game Quest probably knows by now my love for cooperative board games. Much likes playing the game of Craps in the casino, it’s a lot of fun to have a group of people working together towards a common goal. You win together, you lose together. Thus, enter the newest cooperative board game to get reviewed here: Space Alert.
It also has the honor of being, spoiler alert, my absolute favorite cooperative board game on the market today. Space Alertcombines chaotic real time game mechanics with cooperative game play for what amounts to a really fun experience.

Original Rating: 4.5/5

If your not big on board game but maybe you have a lot of friends who are, this is a good way to start. The game is easy to learn and similar to hearts. Games are generally long but they do get quite competitive.
