Great Board Games with Little To No Physical Interaction

March 21, 2020 by Moe T. Leave a Comment

Today I'm going to be looking at tabletop games that limit physical contact during the games. Games where players don't share or touch the same pieces and where players can sit far apart. I am also going to share board game hacks to help make some games playable with less physical contact.


Limiting physical interaction is a great way to still be able to enjoy playing games while making sure to avoid the potential spread of illness.  [ READ MORE ]

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

December 18, 2019 by Moe T. 22 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 the best 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 ]
