What are some of the best two player board games for date night? – Ask The Bellhop

December 18, 2019 by Moe T. 20 Comments

One of the first questions I answered here on the Tabletop Bellhop blog was "What are some good two player games?" This is, by far, the most popular post I've written. It's also one that I still get a lot of comments on. Many of those comments are asking me for more specific two player game recommendations. People want to know what are the best board games for couples, or games to play on date night.

Playing games is something my wife and I do together often. When we do have a night out without the kids it often involves a nice meal, some craft beer, and some gaming. Over the years we've found quite a few games that work great for when it's just the two of us. [ READ MORE ]

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.
