Love board games? Let’s talk boardgames, lots of board gaming (and a few RPGs). Tabletop Bellhop, your cardboard concierge, is here to answer your gaming and game night questions, helping you make your game nights better with tabletop game reviews and advice.
The best newer two player board games. Tying into that we’ve got a review of one of the hottest new two player games out there right now, Watergate from Capstone Games. In our week in review we continue our Jaws of the Lion campaign, discuss some 7 Wonders, Clans of Caledonia, Terra Mystica and Rallyman GT online, and I convince Deanna to try For the Queen, a pass the stick style indie RPG.

Tonight we are looking at the best two-player games to be released in the last three years based on a question from Willie Waldman who writes:
“My girlfriend and I are getting into gaming. I would like to know some of the games you think are the most fun for 2 players. Any category. Any size. Any type. We play at home. We are new to this so any help would be appreciated.”
