While most board games would pit you against one another, is different. It’s a co-op experience where you attempt to defeat the game itself by preventing another mass disease outbreak. The job is easier said than done, as not everything will be under your control.

It’s not an easy task being a jewel merchant in the Renaissance era, especially when you have to face competition from your buddies. requires you to own different mines, use them to own jewels, and have the highest prestige points.

While one person takes the role of the riddler, other players have to guess.

Thanks to the open-ended nature of the cards, you’ll have to dive deep into the depths of your imagination. You can also pick up a Disney version of Dixit at the same Price as the base edition.

One of the best sci-fi strategy games of all time, puts you in charge of different civilizations with the objective of reaching the top.

If you’re a big Witcher fan like me (who owns the books and the games), maybe it’s time for you to add the grand board game. Like Geralt in the stories and the games, you get to explore the vast land and create your adventures. You play with the help of your deck and the different cards, and it’s all about balancing your actions. Sometimes, it might just be worth holding on to your cards to create a move with greater synergy, which will help you get more rewards. Even if you’re just someone who loves RPGs and old-school grand strategy board games, is worth a place in your collection.
