7 Wonders Duel, That’s Pretty Clever, Splendor Duel, Pandemic, Micromacro: Crime City, Stardew Valley, Azul, Encore and Brass Birmingham for me. 7 Wonders Duel is the king.

@paulhamrick3943 2 года назад

I’ve never heard anyone say that Pandemic is best at two players but that actually makes total sense.

@rexgoodheart3471 2 года назад

My wife and I visited Carcassonne in France a couple of years ago, too. It was on my bucket list because of the board game. "I'm going to visit this place one day" I'd always say. And sure enough, the trip was a Christmas present to my wife and my myself. We stayed inside the castle for 3 nights, spent some time in the city outside the castle, visited some vineyards in the area. Combined that with a week stay in Catalonia and then a week in Barcelona. What an amazing time we had! Thanks for reigniting the memories. And, oh, by the way... Carcassonne is a great game for two people. Must try Castles of Burgundy now... but then I'd probably have to go back to France. :)

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Rex, that's amazing! Thanks for sharing this. I wish my friend and I had more time to explore within the city walls of Carcassonne, we were only there for a few hours in total. So glad to hear you and your wife got to experience that! Barcelona is a great city too, love the culture there. Sounds like quite the Europe trip you had!

@testoftetris 2 года назад

in my mind, Santorini is a 2-player-only game. I think the 3 and 4 player rules were only added as Kickstarter stretch goals and I feel like those actually ended up hurting the game a lot. It seems like people frequently overlook that the game is really designed to be a head-to-head experience. I have had some fun experiences with the 2v2 teams variant, but I really think Santorini would have seen a lot more critical praise and commercial success if it had just marketed itself as a strictly 2-player game.

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Interesting, I hadn't really thought of it that way (re: the marketing) but you're probably right. I actually keep Santorini on my "2-player only" spot on my shelf at home (not in the video, we film at Dylann's house) because I never want to play it with 3 or 4. It can be okay with 3 or 4 but it's a much inferior game. - Carlo

@rolling.reggie 2 года назад

To comment on Carlos' opinion on Micro Macro, I thought of aold proverb: "shared sorrow is half sorrow, shared joy is double joy"

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

That sums up the feeling PERFECTLY! MicroMacro definitely benefits from the shared experience. Thanks for sharing that!

@codykunka5558 2 года назад

Thanks for the video! I mainly play at 2 players, so this type of video is particularly helpful. I hear Ares Expedition lacks some of the tight decisions of Race for the Galaxy. It would be nice to see your video on reviewing and comparing the two games.

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Thanks Cody! You're in luck - we're planning to get a copy of Ares Expedition soon and we were actually already planning a video comparing it to RftG, glad to hear this is something you'd find valuable. Keep an eye out for that in a few weeks.

@tmmw1975 2 года назад

Race for the Galaxy is such a good call, it works great with the 2 player advance rules. Played literally hundreds of games of this 2 player over the years, so fun.

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

It's amazing how well it works with 2 players and how fast it plays. Have you tried any of the expansions? I've been playing just the base game for like 10 years. If you have any expansion recommendations let me know! Not sure what to start with.

@en4crcdn 2 года назад

Interesting picks/discussion. I tend to buy games that are designed specifically for 2player or for 2+ players. From my own collection, the pandemic titles all play well at 2-player, Aeon's end series, and other deck-builders like Marvel Champions obviously. I've never played Carcassonne but I thought about picking up the 20th-anniversary edition just to see how it plays as a 2-player dueloff (funny how that selection irks some people). Enjoyed the content. Cheers!

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Yeah, games that are strong at 2 players have become even more important in the past 15 months! Aeon's End is another great one that Carlo has and that I want to play more of. The couple times I've played it, I've really enjoyed it!

@CrunchyCrustacean 2 года назад

Great list. And I totally agree about Carcassonne - it's quite random at higher player counts, and I personally know some people that enjoy that, but the cutthroat nature of the game with 2 players is where it's at. I'd also like to mention Seasons is an amazing best-at-2 game. One of my very favourite games.

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Seasons is great! Tried it on Boardgamearena a few months ago, really cool game and I agree it's best with 2.

@juanroaguilo 2 года назад

Great list!

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

I love Castles of Burgundy but never played it 2 players. I'll have to try it now. Great pics!

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Yes, would definitely recommend it at 2! Tons of fun and doesn't take too long once you get efficient with it.

@lauramalmquist1242 2 года назад

I am stoked to try Mirco Macro and Pandemic sounds super interesting!

@marcosseven8872 2 года назад

I absolutely enjoy playing at two players count, Splendor with all the 4 small expansions that come in the Cities of Splendor expansion. its just great! Also enjoy Azul: Summer Pavilion

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Splendor is great, haven't tried any of the expansions yet though! Also need to check out Summer Pavilion at some point.

@Sir_I.I_William 2 года назад

Carcassonne is an amazing game. Not only is the base game one of the top Gateway Games of all time, but once you add in expansions (I&C, T&B, A&M + River) it's just a great game period. I also agree that's it best playing H2H in a two player game, and against the same opponent over multiple games. It becomes like tactical version of Chess ...

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Totally agree about playing the same opponent repeatedly, that's how I've enjoyed it best. I should try some of the expansions again, I've mostly just played the base game, no river. - Carlo

@christinehaslam9480 Год назад

Hi. I just bought Carca game. Im confused about the expansion. If I bought one, do you mix the 2 games? Meaning does the expansion one connect to the orignal, or is a separate game🤦‍♀️.. Just getting back into board games so hope this makes sense???

@Sir_I.I_William Год назад

@@christinehaslam9480 Base Game mixes with expansions like 'Inns and Cathedrals', 'Traders and Builders, and 'Abbey and Mayor' (there are others too, as well as numerous micro-expansion type things). These expansions are basically more tiles, and different meeples that provide new abilities and scoring opportunities. However, there are standalone Carcassonne games like 'Hunter and Gathers', 'South Seas" and others, that don't mix with regular Carcassonne ...

@xandermichael78 2 года назад

One of my gaming "groups" is my friend Maria who's brain seems to work the same way as mine so we click so well when we're playing games, obviously at two player. The ones that have really shone are Pandemic Rapid Response, Unlock!, and The 7th Continent. They're all coops, but for competitive games I'd say On Mars and Calico

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

7th Continent is one I'm very anxious to try out for myself! -Dylann

@franciscocarranza9941 2 года назад

Great picks. Here’s a few more… Tsuro, Chronicles of Time, Shipyard, Dominion, and Grand Austria Hotel.

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Thanks for the suggestions! Of those 5 I've only played Dominion (hundreds of times). I'd be most interested in Shipyard for sure, followed by GAH. - Carlo

Honestly I’m just happy to see another Jets fan out here in the wild

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Go Jets Go! Dylann and I have both lived in Winnipeg our entire lives so I'm happy to know there's at least one other Jets fan watching us. I've worn this hat in quite a few videos and you're the first person to comment about being a Jets fan, haha. Careful though, I think Dylann's favourite team these days is actually the Oilers but I could be wrong about that.

@wanghiskhan7345 2 года назад

Citrus - plays up to 5, but there's a flip side of the board that fits 2-3 players. Ishtar - the board is modular and you build/size it for 2, 3, or 4 people. The River, one side of the player boards is 3-4 players and the flip side of the boards makes it a great two player worker placement game

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Interesting picks! I've heard of all of those but haven't played any of them yet. Had my eye on Ishtar recently though. - Carlo

@ChillMusicRoad 2 года назад

Thank you, but that would be nicer if you gave a sneak peek from the insides of the board game boxes

@adammoore5383 2 года назад

Great video. First I’ve seen from your channel, and subscribed to see more. Pandemic Legacy at 4 was the BEST gaming experience I’ve had up to this point, which for that game is more the point then the actual game play. Definitely need the right group for that though. I loved some of the other picks though, and a few new ones you both mentioned that I’ll have to try out. RftG would be my number 2 actually, with another title by the same designer being even better. Res Arcana is super good at 2, and I don’t enjoy it much at all with 3 or 4.

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Thanks for watching and subscribing! We both love Res Arcana, I know it almost made my list, and I totally agree it's best with 2p. You'll probably see Res Arcana mentioned on this channel many more times. - Carlo

@rgitzelify 2 года назад

Azul (the original one). It has its moments with more players, but.... it really shines when you _know_ the other person is going to be able to take the tiles you don't take. And then they take the one red tile you NEEDED for your bottom row. ARG!! We still play a lot of Castles of Burgundy with just two, like you say, it's _always_ an enjoyable game, and we're nicely evenly matched. Feld did a really good job of scaling, so that the game is always just short of the tiles YOU want. (Side note on CoB, if you get the head-to-head coop boards, it's CRAZY. We've played three other couples that were experienced players and it's intense!! Double-triple-checking every move. Exhausting!)

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Azul is really cutthroat with 2 players, so many tiles being smashed. And thanks for the heads up about the CoB coop boards! That does sound intense, we'd be interested to at least try that out.

@BraidenWatling 2 года назад

YES! I'm excitd that MicroMacro is on here! Just picked it up :). Still need to add Castles of Burgundy to the collection though :P. Thanks for the lists lads!

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Try not to race through MicroMacro too quickly! Once you play through those cases you're going to wish you had more! It's so good.

Awesome lists. Thanks for sharing. 7 Wonders Duel is on many people's Top 2-Player lists. I thought I would see it mentioned, but nice to see that you had other choices.

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Thanks Tony! The only reason it's not in this video is that these lists are specifically games that play at other player counts but are best with 2 players. 7WD is only a 2-player game so not eligible for this list, but we did a separate 2-player only games video and, spoiler alert, it was pretty high up on one of our lists. Thanks for watching!

@Dreadnote-pf7of 2 года назад

I played Santorini with my 5 years old nephew (but we played it through mobile version) and he loves it! Yeah, he definetly not GOOD at it and at first he became very mad at me from "stealing his towers" , but after couple of games (that are super-fast) he get how to block someone, what worker he need to move when (at first he just focused on one and play all games with solo-worker, but now he understand) etc. We still don't actualy touch any God powers except one, Arthemis, if I remember correctly (that allow to move worker two times), that was given to nephew. So right now he on "training wheels" when he could move twice and I just play "God-free". But this is a very fun and beautiful expiriense, even when played via mobile version.

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

It's a great idea to introduce a younger player to the game without God powers and then add them in later, good choice!

@jonathanpickles2946 2 года назад

A Feast for Odin, Arkham Horror LCG, Spirit Island, LOTR LCG. So co-ops or AFFO which is more or less multiplayer solitaire but it's nice to have someone else along, other games I tend to prefer with 3 or 4.

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

AFFO almost made my list, but because of the low player interaction it's usually not a game I gravitate to for a 2-player game...even if it probably works best with 2 or 3 players. Haven't played those LCGs yet but those and Spirit Island are awesome picks! - Carlo

@Dreadnote-pf7of 2 года назад

Spirit Island is definetly good with 2... But IMHO it is play really well with 3 or even 4. You get so much different interactions, tactics and combos!.. And boy do I tremble every time when I just try to imagine 6-spirit game! Just epic story for like... 20 hours

@lastburning 2 года назад

Carcassonne: With 2 players shared structures give players 0 points in practice, so sharing a structure is always about nullifying the opponent's structure. Shared structures make more sense in 3+ player games. My favorite player count is 3. Also, I love "cut-throat" Carcassonne! It's more deep than some people think.

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Great point about player counts, I really enjoy it as a 3-player game too but with only 7 followers the stakes feel even higher in a 2-player game and there's less downtime for each player. More turns per player.

@Anorthite4 2 года назад

I breathed a sigh of relief when you pulled out CoB. Absolutely best at 2 player.

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Totally agree!

@monoludico6166 2 года назад

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Haven't tried 51st State yet, or Loyang, but those are all great picks. Tableau builders are so good with 2 players.

@monoludico6166 2 года назад

@@AllYouCanBoard Yes! I'm not sure why but, apparently, tableau builders are best with 2...

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

I think it's because it's hard enough to track one opponent's card abilities in addition to your own, so adding more players makes you spend more time leaning over the table reading your opponent's cards or asking what they do. More downtime without much additional gain to the gameplay itself.

@monoludico6166 2 года назад

@@AllYouCanBoard Your description is pretty accurate. Yeah, more players usually don't contribute much to the experience in those games.

@diamondmeeple 2 года назад

Carcassonne is my top 2-player game. I would highly recommend two superb abstract strategy games: TZAAR and DVONN. TZAAR is the best modern abstract strategy game, DVONN slightly more accessible. Play both with random set up the first few times. Amazing games. The tension in TZAAR is through the roof, and after a few games you will see different stategies develop. You've tried Knizia's card game Battle Line?

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Hehe, we actually did a separate video for Best 2-Player Only Games, since this one is for games that are best with 2 but can play with more. I think you'll be pleased to see where Battle Line lands in that video 😁 As for TZAAR and DVONN, another viewer actually recommended those recently too! They sound very interesting and we like a lot of abstract games.

@diamondmeeple 2 года назад

@@AllYouCanBoard TZAAR is mind blowing good. As for games with more players that work great with two...You've tried Knizia's game Ingenious? I got Schact's game Hansa... it is said to be great with two players... but I've not tried it yet. As for neat 2-player abstracts: Tintas (Tom gave it a seal of excellence) and Push Fight (buy online from pushfightgame) are worth it 😉

@Triaglon 2 года назад

Hail to the king, Carcassonne ! with expansions for me. It adds so more depth, you just need to pick the right ones for you.

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

That's fair, I've tried the Big Box with ALL expansions at once but I don't think I've ever just tried selecting one or two expansions. Which ones would you recommend most? I liked Inns and Cathedrals, and the one with the Pig, and the one with Builders I think? Not sure how I feel about the Princess and Dragon. Then again, I played all these about 10 years ago so it has been a while.

@Triaglon 2 года назад

@@AllYouCanBoard Yes, Inns and Cathedrals, and builders are indispensable to me, and easy to add. Think to where to place your builder to accelerate your game is a good mechanical. Princess and Tower are good too, if you want to add some interaction and salt. I just keep Tower, because my friends prefer to circle the dragon, instead of making enemies by eating someone’s meeple. So, the dragon become tedious and useless. Mage and witch are good too. Bazaar with the auctions is interesting, but we don't need some particular tile, and it is a wasting time. I’m not going to go through all the extensions, but the idea is to clean up most of the fun, without unnecessarily slowing down the games. Some extensions take their meaning and interest only by playing with few extensions, where each point and tile count. In a big game, with lots of extensions and rules, we don’t care if we go and pick sheep and wolves out of a bag for some points, or spend 5 minutes bidding tiles that you don’t really need.

@malvinafis6907 2 года назад

For me it's for sure Marcel Champions and Arkham Horror LCG, also Santorini and Fantasy Realms. All of those I am not really motivated to try at a higher player count because they work so well at 2. I liked Aeons End way better at 2 than at 3. I also enjoyed playing Gloomhaven JotL at 2 but there I don't have a comparison with more players. I was waiting for the list, great list from your side, there might be some games I need to check out.

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

We need to try Fantasy Realms! And I totally agree with you on Aeon's End, definitely best with 2. - Carlo

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Santorini and Burgundy especially are just ones that never get old for me. I love them. Apparently Burgundy is in beta on BGA, so it will be even easier to play with people now! And yeah, Marvel Champions is fantastic at 2 and solo. Definitely one of my desert island games at this point! -Dylann

@ScytheNoire 2 года назад

Good list of games that do play great at two players. Wife and I play Carcassonne (with Expansions 1, 2, and 4) and it's a great, very strategic, and very mean game. It's all about stealing their city points, or at least tying to deny them a big score, while also trying to gain your own big scores. Not sure I'd want to play with more. Star Wars: Rebellion could be on this list too, since they claim it's a 2-4 player game, although we all know it's really a two player game for Star Wars geeks.

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Happy to see some more love for Carcassonne! The more you play it, the deeper it gets, and it feels perfect with 2 players. Rebellion is another one we've both wanted to try for a while. We're not huge Star Wars fans but we enjoy Star Wars enough, and the game gets so many amazing reviews.

@simonmcg23 2 года назад

WIngspan.. More generallly, playing a game with 2 players means both of you are looking at the board directly. No craning your head sideways or worse - reading upside down. I jsut cant be bothered with that. i think its a huge advantage to the person(s) who dont need to crane or translate

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

That's a great point and one of the reasons I prefer tableau builders usually with 2 players, maybe 3 at most. Trying to see everyone's card abilities across the table or having to ask them to explain their abilities can get tiresome. - Carlo

@lisamarin8836 2 года назад

I agree that a lot of co-op games play best at two, and I would definitely have the Pandemic Legacy games on my list - also Hanabi, Tranquility, and Spirit Island. I tend not to like competitive games with two players, possibly because I am okay with not being The Winner but am really bummed out by being The Loser xD. Although there are certainly some 2-player-only games that are so well-designed that I can overcome this tendency, I've had to play a lot of 2-4 or 2-5 player games with only two players over the past year and a half (can't imagine why) and always find myself wondering how much better they could be at higher player counts. Also, good call on Santorini, although I agree with other commenters that it's clearly meant to be a 2-player abstract game with 3- or 4-player variants.

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Never tried Hanabi as a 2-player game and neither of us have tried Tranquility yet but I think it's on Boardgamearena so we'll have to try it there.

@Naledgeizpwr 2 года назад

For sure agree with Race for the Galaxy and Innovation. I enjoy many games that play well at 2, but for games were 2 is by far my favorite player count... Kingdoms, by Reiner Knizia My City, by Reiner Knizia Hansa, by Michael Schacht Crazy Chicken or Drive, by Michael Schacht Taluva, by Marcel-André Casasola Merkle Cities, Martin F Haggis, by Sean Ross The Hanging Gardens, by Din Li Tsan And for a standard deck of cards, Cribbage.

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Carcassonne is deceptive...it looks like a chill, relaxing game but with 2 players it can be really competitive. If there's a big gap in skill or one player doesn't like mean games and they just want to build their own stuff, they likely won't enjoy playing with someone who's looking for opportunities to mess with their opponent. My wife tried Carcassonne once with me many years ago and she didn't enjoy it either, don't take it personally, sounds like you two have enough other games you enjoy playing together. - Carlo

Race for the Galaxy is a close #2, Ares Expedition is on clearance everywhere…yikes…

Haha yeah, I didn't expect to see Ares Expedition on such drastic sales so soon, but based on how I feel about the game I feel it's deserved. - Carlo

Could have actually showed the games rather than just the boxes.

Totally fair and we appreciate the feedback. We were likely pressed for time and this is a somewhat older video of ours now, before we had built up a database of b-roll for a lot of different games. I think we have a good amount of b-roll in most (if not all) of our videos for a while now. Either way, thanks for watching and for your comment!

Love micro macro with my girlfriend

@AllYouCanBoard 2 года назад

Such a great game to play with a significant other. In case you missed the announcement, keep an eye out for the next one in the series (part 2 of 4) called MicroMacro Full House!
