Building something with Tiles. Tile Laying Game Suggestions – Ask The Bellhop

April 30, 2019 by Moe T. 3 Comments

It's been a while since I've done a game recommendation article and I figured it was about time to publish another one. Today, I'm going to be looking at tile laying games based on a question we received here on the Tabletop Bellhop homepage.

Steve writes:

I'm looking for tile placement games that help build something large like a city to either explore or use as part of the game. I enjoy Alhambra but the building aspect of it is usually on the smaller side. I tried Suburbia but it was a bit slow due to my groups analysis paralysis to max out the math/points for each placed tile.

DragonGem from The Lobby, the Tabletop Bellhop Live twitch chatroom asks,

What are some good 2 player games?

Thanks for the question DragonGem and also thanks for taking part in our first ever live show.

This sounds like such a simple question, doesn't it? Something I should be able to answer easily and quickly. But it is actually not such an easy question as there are just so many possible answers. At first, I considered contacting DragonGem to have her narrow the question down but then I realized that I think it would be worth talking about just how many different styles of two-player games there are out there and showcase just how broad this wonderful hobby of ours is.
