What were the best board games of 2025? In this video, I count down my top 10 board games of 2025, featuring a mix of strategic euro board games, family games, solo games and two player board games. This isn’t a hype list — these are the games that stuck with me, hit the table again and again, and made 2025 such a great year for board gaming.

As always, this list reflects my personal tastes and table time, not just what was popular or trending.

– Azul Duel
– The Manhattan Project: Energy Empire
– Pergola
– Critter Kitchen
– Ichor
– Farm Hand
– Knitting Circle
– Above and Below: Haunted
– Mercurial Alchemia
