Product Information

Your kids hate math: Because you have to understand basic math to work through Sushi Go, it won't be a good fit for very young children or those who are practically allergic to sums.

The only thing you do know is that one of the game's scenarios will eventually begin, dictated by the rooms and items you've drawn. This mission turns your allies - or the mansion itself - against you. Seeing as both sides are given secret objectives to follow, the result is an anxious yet exhilarating race against time.This retro classic has been around for years, and that's no surprise; its blend of negotiation and rule-breaking is still just as gripping now as it was in the '70s. If you're shopping for children, board games that are easy to understand but endlessly replayable are king. We've yet to find one that does it better than Sushi Go, and it's always one we recommend when asked. However, if by 'popular' you mean "something we think is really awesome", our vote goes to Frosthaven. This Gloomhaven follow-up takes everything that was great about the RPG and improves it, leaving us with a strong game of the year contender that the community has been very excited about. You can read more in our Frosthaven first impressions guide. What is the most interesting board game?

You want something easy: Want to avoid raising your blood pressure? It's probably better to stay away from this one - part of the fun in Pandemic is that it forces you to strategize on the fly as you work to manage a constantly-evolving situation. The answer to this sort of question comes down to personal preference, but we'd say board games like Gloomhaven (which often feature customizable characters or branching storylines that react to your choices) would come up trumps. Besides keeping you busy for months on end with consequences that follow you from session to session, they allow you to take ownership of things in a way few competitors do. They're often a bit deeper too, with more layered gameplay that'll provide a satisfying challenge. The bottom line: There's a good reason why Pandemic has been on shelves for a couple of decades now - its blend of challenge and elation when you win makes it a classic. While there are countless versions to choose from now, we're still partial to this original game due to how elegant it is. Absolutely nothing is wasted in terms of mechanics and design.

If you ask us, that intricacy makes Villainous better when played head-to-head. While duking it out with lots of other people is fun, reducing the head-count makes things less chaotic and gives you more time to strategize. It's a great choice in terms of must-have board games for 2 players.

You're expecting it to be as deep as standard Gloomhaven: The original Gloomhaven (not to mention its sequel, Frosthaven) defines 'sprawling fantasy epic.' Indeed, it'll take you months to finish. Even though Jaws of the Lion has plenty of depth, it's nowhere near as big. If you're expecting it to be on par with its predecessor, you'll be disappointed. Don't be fooled by that cutesy art style; this is as hardcore a strategy game as you can get. Because each woodland faction boasts unique skills and objectives, there's a lot to sink your teeth into. It's very replayable as a result. And the best thing about board games is that they can also be played with others, which make them great party games over which you can bond and spend quality time with friends and family. And if you don't quite understand the rules, you will learn them in no time and you'll be able to master these great games from the comfort of your own home, and without the trouble of bringing boards or having to account for pieces. What you need to know: The odds are against you from the start in Pandemic, but that's the beauty of it. This co-op epic is never less than thrilling, and it doesn't feel hopeless either. Despite being tasked with curing a clutch of super-diseases, good communication (not to mention the ability to think on your feet) will see you through. Want satisfying cooperative board games for your collection? This should be at the top of the pile.We've never seen two games go the same way, for instance. Each factions' quirks (and the cards that can influence them) provide a wealth of options each turn, and while this is overwhelming at first, such flexibility makes Root truly compelling in the long-term. It's very replayable.
