Loved this video. Excellent insight into the games I can play with my wife when it is just the two of us. Thank you for continuing to make this content for us all to enjoy 👍

Chip Theory Games needs to make a Codenames that you can play in the Jacuzzi.

Thanks for that list, well done. Many of your games are also on our favorite list. We also like Azul #3 and #4

Great list. Want to try Detective. Gloomhaven may make a lot of women's eyes glaze over with "What on earth is this?" "Why?"

19:00 I recently designed a 3D-printable insert and dice tower for the original printing of The Castles of Burgundy. Increase fun and reduce setup and teardown time :D models can be found on printables (for free of course)

Thank you for sharing your favorites. My City and Clank Legacy: Acquisitions Incorporated were two of the best experiences I had gaming with my SO.

I really want to get my hands of Roll Player Adventures, looks right up my alley but it is an investment! I'd add Radlands, Welcome To, Hanamikoji, Earth, Obsession, Hadrian's Wall.

Dropping in from the BBG calendar, looking for more clues on two player games as a gift for my parents. I guess you guys just sold another copy of Codenames Duel. =)

Alright, I guess Codenames Duett has to finally move in 😀 Certainly a very solid list even though I don't love all of those. When I think of 2 player games I also mostly think of rather quick games you can play after long works days, but I like it that you did not narrow it down to only that. I guess my list would look like this, even though I have not played #3 and #7 in quite a while. 10. The Lost Expedition 9. Nusfjord 8. Broom Service 7. Ruthless 6. Circle the Wagons (replaced Patchwork for me) 5. The King is Dead 4. Coimbra 3. Race for the Galaxy 2. Crokinole 1. Maracaibo

very tricky, as it depends what kind of dynamic does the couple have. for example my gf likes high interaction and take that moments so our 2p games are highly competitive and dynamic. other couples might enjoy more solitaire feel of many euro games, etc.

Love you guys. Code names Duet is a great cooperative game for more than two. Cuts out the down time compared to the original

Other ones that are good to mention are: 1960: The Making of the President, Hanamakoji, A Few Acres of Snow, Battle Line/Schotten Totten, Ginkgopolis, Seeland, The Magnificent, This Guilty Land(!), Table Battles, 13 Days: The Cuban Missile Crisis 1962, Air, Land & Sea, Small Samurai Empires, Jekyll vs. Hyde, Targi, Watergate, Undaunted, Wir Sind das Volk!, Blitzkrieg! or Caesar!: 20 Minutes Battle and my personal favourite: Unforgiven: The Lincoln Assassination Trial. It looks outstanding (yes: a book!) and it's even better in my opinion than 7 Wonders Duel. Hard to get in Europa, but if you get the change: grab it!

We had so much fun with My City. I think a lot of legacy games are great for couples because the experience is uniquely yours

Thanjs for the great list lovely people!

Thanks for the tip on how Approachable is an Adventure role-playing game. I have been looking for a simple Cinema!

Great list! Very recently, at long last, I obtained “Grand Austria Hotel”. I look forward to playing it. When you mentioned that money is “ tight” in that game, it came to mind that the customers in the game must be lousy tippers. 😅 For abstract fans, “Yinsh” is a very good 2 player only game with a clever “ catch up” mechanism.

I love this video and your lists! Not sure you could have done any better. 10/10! The only question I can think of: You mention Lost Cities quite a bit (with good reason), but is there any particular reason I don't think you talk about Battle Line (or Battle Line: Medieval)? Just curious. Again, one of my favorite BGR videos. Thanks!

Oh crap it’s Valentine’s Day?!

2:22 Reiner gets hidden behind the game box :'D

Not in any particular order but my favourite games for 2 players are: - Paladins of the West Kingdom - Grand Austria Hotel - Targi - Patchwork - Hanamikoji - Jaipur

Great list! I play mostly at 2p and I have some crossovers with your lists but I think at least 50/60 % would be different. Underwater Cities would be mandatory, for sure. I'm curious on how you play Jaws of the Lion, since I have it on my shelf of shame and will probably play it at 2p. Do you play 1 character each or 2?

I love that you don't share lists together...I love that you have crossovers...I'm sad that when the crossover is announced that the person doesn't find new things to say about it and the experience you have playing it! Feels like such a missed opportunity!

A new grouping of games hot tub games by board game ramblings

Love your list. I would add the following: Nanga Parbat, Duelasaur Island, Keyflow, Spirit Island

Excellent choices. Most frequently played 2-player games for my wife and I are Grand Austria Hotel, Patchwork, and Lost Cities! We are really enjoying Splendor Duel as well, have you played it?

Heja Norge! Heja er! Ni är så bra, hurra hurra!!! Tänker på er varje gång jag ser min låda med A feast for Odin Norwegians expansion 😄💕🎉

In 7 wonders duel is our favorite we have the pantheon and just wounding about the leaders if it's worth getting

Do you know "beer & bread"? In Germany it's relatively new, and a lot of people love this game for 2!

How does one get A feast for odin in norway now? Been searching for such a long time ^^

Santorini is best at four with god powers.

Feast for Odin a couple game?? 😲

Which Unlock didn’t click for you both?

You remind me of Boxed Meeples Channel

Fantastic list, you two! My girlfriend Hannah and I just uploaded our favorite games for couples/two players on Sunday and we have some crossovers! ☺ We like to play Lost Cities on our phones together when we need something short and stress-free! I've introduced Hannah to 7 Wonders Duel but she wasn't a huge fan, unfortunately! And we love playing Patchwork together! 🧵
