FRIENDS Race To Central Perk, Trivia Card & Board Game, Great Gift For The Series Fans! Family Friendly For 2-4 Players

Product Information

Cosmic Encounter is clever enough to run rings around its peers, so it comes highly recommended a full 46-ish years after it hit shelves.

The directory is filterable by age, number of players, play time, and language, making it easy to discover the perfect game for your group.

The graphics are high-definition and animated, and one of the most fun features of the platform is the ability to flip the board when the game goes badly. Actually, those 'legacy' mechanics seem to be a common feature for many of the top board games according to users; fantasy dungeon-crawler Gloomhaven comes in third, for example, and that one sees you working your way through an ever-evolving story. It'll be a hit with all ages, and is a great warm-up game before moving on to something with more depth.

It's both accessible and pleasantly low-key, letting players of all skill-levels tackle the challenge at their own pace.

The tactics on display here are some of the industry's best, and because each faction has its own rules and objectives, there's plenty to get your teeth into. You want a gripping team game: Battling each other for supremacy on the tabletop can be exhausting, especially if those you're playing with are competitive. It got us through lockdown during the pandemic via virtual matches with family, but eventually we learned all the routes and the game lost its shine. You're looking for a game you can learn and play together long-term: Because each character comes with their own unique strategy, strengths, and weaknesses, this is the sort of game that benefits from repeat playing over a long period of time.
