I’m A Board Game Aficionado — These Are The Best Amazon Prime Day Deals You Need To Shop For Your Next Game Night Hit

I love board games. Be it a classic hit like Catan, a hilarious party game like Poetry for Neanderthals, or a 1v1 strategy game like Lord of the Rings: Duel for Middle-Earth — or anything in-between — I’m excited to give it a whirl.

And for Prime Day, Amazon has made many of my favorites super cheap. So I’ve gathered up a collection of my favorites you won’t want to miss — especially as several are part of limited time Lightning Deals, so once they’re gone, they’re gone.

If you want a more classic board game vibe, but something still accessible (read: no more difficult than Monopoly, and a lot more fun) then can I suggest Ticket to Ride or Catan? They're icons of the board game world for a reason.

Carcassonne and Splendor are solid pickups too in that category, and I've found are a little bit more approachable for non-gamers. There's not as many options to disrupt your opponents massively making the competitiveness less sharp.

For larger groups and parties Poetry for Neanderthals, Codenames, and Herd Mentality are perfect. Play them sober, play them tipsy, play them as a drinking game (remember: drink responsibly), whichever you choose will be a blast.
