Itβs tense, clever, & very thematic, though we found the rulebook took a bit of deciphering. Once you get it, itβs quick, replayable, & very fun!

Skull Kingπ΄ββ οΈ
Yo ho ho! This pirate-themed trick-taking game has quickly become one of our favorite ways to bring fun and chaos to the table. It plays best with 3+ players, where the table-pounding bids and sudden appearances of various characters make every hand unpredictable and exciting.
OUR CURRENT FAVORITE GAMES FOR ONLY 2 PLAYERS: π²β€οΈ
We've been spending some time in the evenings unwinding with a game lately just the two of us after dinner and getting our daughter to bed, and these three classics keep coming back to the table.
Itβs great in that it can be so approachable like that but still have strategic depth for gamers, especially with expansions, etc.

It's accessible, replayable, and hits both the relaxing and strategic notes we love. A family-friendly classic we highly recommend. #boardgames #boardgaming
The Crew: The Quest for Planet Nine
We'd heard about this trick-taking game for a little while before finally picking up a copy, and wow β it lives up to the hype! Instead of trying to outscore each other, you're working together to accomplish missions that get harder.
Our score: 9.5/10
TOBAGO ποΈπΏπ°
This is a very clever deduction game involving treasure on an island--once you find the treasure there's a fun push-your-luck system that keeps everyone on edge.
This has quickly become one of our favorites!
Our overall score: 9.5/10
Hereβs a stack of the games hitting our table most often lately. Our two most played this year have been lost cities & dominionβas these two games are fantastic for 2 players!
