Best 3 Board Games in 2026

THIS IS AN EXPANSION TO THE MACHI KORO BOARD GAME: This is not a standalone game. A copy of Machi Koro 5th Anniversary Edition is required to play.

WELCOME BACK TO MACHI KORO: Machi Koro The Expansions brings both original expansion sets Harbor Expansion and Millionaire's Row expansions to Machi Koro 5th anniversary edition. This means there is now room for 5 players, tons of new variety, establishments and new ways to play Machi Koro.

MORE WAYS TO PLAY: You can build harbors and send fishing boats out from the city to earn extra income and supply the Sushi restaurant. In Millionaire's Row, the city of Machi Koro will put on the Ritz with fancy restaurants and members only clubs!

THE NEW SENSATION FROM QUIXX: Qwinto is the rousing, fast-paced dice game from the people who brought you Qwixx, where one person rolls and everyone takes their turn!

ROLL-AND-WRITE STRATEGY GAME: On your turn you choose to roll one two or three dice and then write the pip total on any line you want as long as you rolled the dice of that color. The wrinkle? You have to write numbers in ascending order and you can never write the same number in the same column.

FAST-PACED DICE GAME: Players in Qwinto all play at the same time, with everyone trying to fill the rows on their scoresheets with numbers as quickly — and as highly — as possible in order to score the most points.

WELCOME TO DINOSAUR ISLAND: Several years ago, scientists discovered a way to clone dinosaurs from viable DNA preserved within the fossil record. Now shrewd investors have turned those initial dinosaur sanctuaries into bustling theme parks, true meccas for dino fans the world over.

STRATEGY BOARD GAME: In this radical worker placement game, players compete to open the best Dinosaur Island Theme Park they can. It won't be a walk in the park, though. You will need to hire the right personnel, beat your competitors to perfecting the hottest dino recipes, and gamble on which attractions will draw the most visitors.

CHALLENGING AND COMPETITIVE: Each player takes on the role of a park manager at one of these premier destinations. Bring the fantastic creatures of the Jurassic, Triassic, and Cretaceous periods forward into the modern day. Early retirement is yours if you can make your park bigger and better than the competition!

BRING BALANCE BACK TO THE FOREST: Time is broken and shattered. The seasons all exist at once, and day and night have no real cycle, they rotate at the whim of the forest. This enchanted land has been driven into chaos. Will you save it?

STRATEGY BOARD GAME: In Brew, players roll dice and then allocate their results into different areas of the board and forest cards. Different die faces can provide special abilities when allocated, changing players’ strategies and the resources they earn when placing.

MULTIPLE PATHS TO VICTORY: Choose how to use element dice. Take control of different forest regions, collect resources to brew potions, and make animal friends. All of which will either score them victory points directly or build toward points scored at the end of the game.

FUN DOESN'T GO EXTINCT IN THIS PARK! Now that the scientific triumph of dinosaur cloning is public knowledge, competition is hot and new parks spring up regularly. Buckle up for the standalone sequel to the smash hit, Dinosaur Island!

STRATEGY BOARD GAME: Each round, you’ll draft a group of Workers from the Worker Database to run your park for a full season. Then you’ll divide up those Workers to take on the various tasks of building and running your Park. The better you run your park, the more Victory Points you’ll score!

WORKER PLACEMENT GAME: Hire groups of specialized workers and assign your staff to various tasks - gathering ancient DNA, cloning new Dinos, buying new attractions, and keeping your patrons safe from a toothy demise.

PACK-BUILDING STRATEGY BOARD GAME: It’s survival of the fittest as you compete to build the largest, most dominant pack by claiming territory, recruiting lone wolves, and hunting prey. But be careful not to expand too recklessly into terrain where your rivals thrive– they may lure members of your pack away!

MULTIPLE PATHS TO VICTORY: A clever action-selection mechanism drives your choices. Each action requires you to flip terrain tiles matching the terrain where you wish to take your action. These double-sided tiles mean the actions you take this round will set up which terrain types you can act on in the next round.

HIGHLY STRATEGIC: As you take actions to expand your pack’s control of each region, you will also upgrade your pack’s attributes, allowing you to take more aggressive actions as the game goes on.

NACHO AVERAGE PARTY GAME: Nacho Pile is a fast-paced, high-energy game that will have chips flying back and forth as players compete for full plates and stomachs.

PUSH-YOUR-LUCK STRATEGY GAME: In the game, players must push their luck to pile their nacho plates high, but also cleverly snatch matching chips from other players. Don't get too risky or you will lose them all! Keep an eye out for special chips that really ramp up the heat with spicy effects.

CHALLENGING AND FAST-PACED: Players draw nacho tiles from the game bag. If they pull matching nachos, they return all their nachos to the bag. If players pull a nacho that matches a nacho in another player’s area, they take that nacho from the other player and add it to their pile, increasing their score!
