Question

What are the funnest board games for a husband and wife?

Answer 1

Sorry, Life, Uno, and Monopoly.

Best one is Trivial Pursuit.

Answer 2

A great two-player game is Can't Stop.  Very easy to play and a lot of fun.  Check E-Bay.

Answer 3

Lost Cities is probably the best. Carcassonne and Ticket to Ride are some of my wifes favorites. Zooloretto is a good one, and if you can get her to try it we have liked Memoir 44. Check these and thousands of other games at www.boardgamegeek.com

Answer 4

My husband and I play 2-player games all the time

Miniature War-ish Game: Battlelore

Abstract: Chess, Hive (favorite ever), Go, Yinsh (great game), Zertz, Othello, Quarto (short and very replayable)

Themed: Dungeon Twister (a really fun "thinker")

Fun/Dexterity: Elk Fest

Deductive: Mr. Jack, Lord of the Rings: the Confrontation Deluxe

Card: Lost Cities

I'd say my favorite is Hive or Yinsh, but my husband loves Battlelore. Battlelore tends to appeal to both sexes as it is a fantasy war game, but light and card driven. Not quite as geeky as it sounds! Well worth the investment.

Lost Cities is VERY popular when it comes to getting non-gamers to play. Its fun, light and as addictive as solitaire. Also not very expensive.

(all above games are strictly two player games, not 2-6 players)

multi-player games that work well two player: Caylus (a bit heavy), Tikal, Carcassonne, Mexica
