Board games are fun for the whole family and help pull us away from our screens for bonding time. But the same board games have been around for ages and can feel stale. The same goes for puzzles.
Thankfully we’ve rounded up some new options that are super fun. These unique board games and puzzles can be played solo or with a group. Curb your boredom and create delightful memories with the people you love with these selections.
Stardew Valley: The Board Game
Stardew Valley is a beloved independently published video game on multiple platforms. Now it’s also a board game! This can be played solo or with up to four people, but be warned: there’s a long commitment ahead.
This game takes hours to complete and may need to be played over two days. It’s like Monopoly, except you actually enjoy your time and don’t want to flip the table over. Become a farmer, slay slimes and become a completionist with all the add-on content you can do.
