What are your favorite board games? Me and my friends love playing board games, but I get the feeling their tired of playing the same things. What do you guys usually play? My favorite board game of all time is HeroQuest. I never get tired of playing it. Also love Catan, Arkham Horror, Betrayal House on the Hill, Spyfall (great at parties)

Hi! This is my first post here so I hope I don't make some mistakes. If you like Heroquest you could look at other dungeon crawlers, like the dungeons and dragons boardgames (my favourite is "waterdeep: the dungeon of the mad mage"), or my beloved Star wars: imperial assault or Lord of the rings: Journeys in the Middle earth. If you want to expand to other genres, since you like AH you could try Arkham horror: living card game. Absolute masterpiece.

The latest addiction to my game library is Earthborne rangers and is quite a refreshing take.

I hope that some of these resonate with you!

Ill check out the LotR And Star Wars games, those seem pretty neat. But honestly, I don't think the DnD dungeon-crawler board are very good. They're still pretty fun, but way to many pieces and far too difficult at times.

Another good alternative and somewhat similar in spirit to Heroquest would be massive darkness. There is a 2nd ed which should be quite good, I have only played the first edition and it was good fun!
