Modern board games are nothing like the classics! Since 2023, my wife and I have dived into this hobby—visually stunning, deeply engaging, and full of clever mechanics. Every game we own is one we’d recommend.

Our biggest surprise? Inferno (2024). We picked it up at Spiel 2025, and now a Gamefound campaign offers an expansion and reprint. We’re going all-in on the upgrade!

What are your favorite games, and why?
