10 games for lovers
Earrings were a year ago. Cinema 2017. Even before that, the bracelet. What to do? What to buy for Valentine's Day as proof of love? The answer is simple: a board game!

I mainly play board games with two people and I have to tell you that it can be a very intimate experience. Of course, I'm not talking about romantic raptures straight from the latest version of M jak Miłość, but believe me - there are games that will make you spend a lot of time together - and you will want more! The list below is not ranked in any way, each of these games would be great for a small loving group.
Kwiatki is a beautifully published game with very simple rules. During the game, you will try to plant and collect the most beautiful bouquets you can create. The game does not last long, only twenty minutes, and after the game the most frequently spoken phrase is: “So, maybe we’ll play again?”. Flowers is a great name for beginners, and besides, isn't it great that you can give someone Flowers that will never wither?
Star Realms, an instant duel of two minds. Each game is different, and the speed of the game allows you to play several times in a row. In the game, we will try to effectively deprive the opponent (okay, teammate!) Of the initial fifty points of life, adjusting to the ever-changing conditions on the table. Star Realms will show you what deck building games are all about, and if you really like it, there's a ton of extras waiting for you!
Cave. cave vs. Cave promises a real economic game in a very compact two-player format and... it keeps its promise! If you've never heard the name Uwe Rosenberg, it's time to change it. This author is one of the most famous board game designers in the world, and Cave for XNUMX could steal the heart of anyone who likes to do some counting in games!
Matches is not a game for two, but it is the perfect game for a couple in love! Why? If you were born before 1990, then you probably remember the game show The King of the Bet. If not, let me explain: it was a program in which couples competed in a competition, testing how well they knew each other. Fitted just such a show on the board. If you want to test how much you already know about yourself - find one or more other couples and play!
The box of Letters from Whitechapel says it's a game for two to five people, but trust me, Letters is best played with two people! One of you will play Jack the Ripper, who will rage in gloomy London at the end of the XNUMXth century. The second is to catch the terrible killer before he does any more damage. A great deductive game that will allow you to spend long hours together in the evenings. You must try this!
Clap, on the other hand, is an unusual title because it's an arcade game. It's like air hockey combined with foosball because during the game we try to put the ball in the opponent's goal. We do this with two holders, which is only seemingly simple. So if you both love arcade games and have room for a big Klask table, I'm sure you're in for a lot of fun.
Grand Austria Hotel is a challenging economic game and be careful, it will soon be hard to find! This information is a little behind the scenes, so if anything, you will not learn it from me! During the game, you manage hotels with a restaurant and must do it better than the other player (the game works with up to four people, but it works best with two people). A very good name for board game players - and you can invite your soulmate to a restaurant ... something like that.
Tokaido is one of the most beautiful and quiet games I know. A big title with simple, slender rules, in which we set off on a journey through charming Japan. We take pictures, collect souvenirs, visit temples and hold inspiring meetings. I love to play traditional Japanese music during the Tokaido part. The game looks beautiful on the table and will definitely be a wonderful gift.
The geisha will keep us in the Eastern climate for a long time. This inconspicuous tiny box hides a real gem among double rooms. Tuggling, bluffing, playing performances - and all this in just twenty minutes! Geisha is a real classic among games for two - and they got such a name in just two years. They're perfect for a quick start to a date, and the rest is up to you...
The Mind - some say that this is not a game, but a social experiment. I love the tension that accompanies the game in this collaborative title. Yes, cooperative, i.e. we do not play against each other, but together we try to pass the game! Difficult because we are forbidden to communicate in any way - words, gestures, or even raising an eyebrow. So if you think your minds are as connected as your hearts, give it a try!
And what? Board games this year? Or maybe Valentine's Day board games for adults? It doesn't really matter what you give your significant other for Valentine's Day - it's important that you spend it together.
