Board Games that are BEST at 2 Players

[@TheBrothersMurph]

What's another game that is BEST at 2 players?

[@FemmeSensei]

Terraforming Mars: Ares Expedition for sure makes my list. I tend to prefer the real Terraforming Mars with more players, but Ares sings with 2 when you use a set of cards for the AI to also trigger a phase each round because it kicks up the pace of the game.

[@925Gamers]

Marvel champions is best at 2!

[@BGBarbarian]

Cloudspire

[@notthatseanbean]

Gloom/Frosthaven and pretty much any "escape room" games (Unlock, Exit, etc).

[@chunkestylevlog5921]

Yeah, that caught me off guard. I was like whhaaaattt!?

[@SlothNast]

Interesting to see GWT make it on here. For us, Underwater Cities at 2p has been an absolute banger. Castles of Burgundy for medium weight, Lost Cities for lightweight probably.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Ah yeah underwater cities is a great choice too!

[@dershed]

Lost Cities wouldn't make the list because it's 2p only, but I see you on the other two.

[@Force-of-Will]

Great selection. Those 3 games are in my top 10 for 2 players as well. Lets add Patchwork, Azul, Ginkgopolis, Fantasy Realms, Splendor, Res Arcana and Robinson Crusoe and you have the 10 very best 2 player games of all time (2024).

[@SlothNast]

@@Force-of-Will yeah Gink has easily crept into our rotation. Such a brilliant game.

[@sirvliam]

Two games that I really enjoy at 2 are Merv and Iwari. They both add a strategic third player type mechanism that the players can manipulate on their turns. So as opposed to being slimmed down at two they feel more robust, but not more complex or lengthier.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Good call on Merv!

[@dandurkin9735]

Interesting! I prefer to play Iwari with 3, but you've given me something to think about - enjoy!

[@Nic1700]

I like Dice Miner most at 3. The way a single tool offsets any number of Hazard Dice almost eliminates that tension when you get that many dice at 2. I find the cheers passing a beer much more interesting when you have a choice of opponents to roll the dice to.

[@devonsmith5113]

This was a pleasantly surprising list! It'd be great to see a top 10 games with a 3 player count list as well!

[@TheBrothersMurph]

We should definitely do that sometime

[@richardshagrin8565]

@@TheBrothersMurph The best game at 3 players is Churchill, the struggle for Peace. Stalin, FDR and Churchill cooperate to beat the Axis powers but also compete to win the most points but not to many points or number two wins.

[@roosterqmoney]

I feel like most games are best at 3 so then it kinda just becomes a top 10 list

[@tbahr123]

Wingspan and Parks are two games that my wife and I love playing with up to five but discovered they are even better and faster with just the two of us.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Good call!

[@FemmeSensei]

Haven't played Parks, but regarding Wingspan I feel like 2 player significantly impacts certain types of birds such as the "once per turn" ones and it makes it a little less dynamic overall...for me, Wingspan's for 4 or 5, though the Asia expansion makes it a little improved at 2.

[@niekka1978]

We are adding some automa actions for two player Wingspan games to help stuff like bird/food rotation and pink powers work better. Haven't even tested the actual 2p version of Wingspan yet.

[@nerd_splaining]

Dice Miner was my first thought. We usually play 3 or 4 but I want to play it as a 2 player because I want to roll a massive amount of dice!

[@thadthomas3105]

Was just thinking the same thing about El Dorado the other night when we played with more players for the first time! For my wife and I, we really enjoy Fantasy Realms at 2 players even though it’s a variant. And based on the cover, I haven’t played that version of Grand Austria Hotel, haha.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Very few have haha ;P

[@jenniferschlickbernd6280]

Thanks!

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Hey now big thanks to you!

[@monksean]

Good to see a fellow two-player five tribes enthusiast. I was taught the game at 4 and thought "I really don't like this game." I got it years later to give it another shot after loving Yamataï and played it at two and it's wonderful. I think, like you said, the fact that you really can't plan your turns much with higher players really hurt it. That and I'm much more invested in the state of the board and the other player's turn at two. Some djin cards feel more OP with two though, especially the ones that let you claim areas on the board with no workers or with workers. Still though, amazing at 2.

[@samuelbrissette3004]

For games that I would always prefer to play them at 2 for me it usually means that the higher player count just adds more downtime without adding anything particularly interesting to the game experience. Res Arcana and Azul come to mind for me. Also, just because it technically says it can be played at 3 or 4, I’ll include war of the ring on my list

[@ButOneThingIsNeedful]

The Brothers Murph are best at 2. Very much want to play Dice Miner (for lots of fun), El Dorado (for more lots of fun) and build up to Grand Austria Hotel with my wife. Great suggestions, great video.

[@dayoltay]

Awesome content! Obsession is definitely best at 2.

[@petergross7235]

I'll play it at any count because I love it. Even the solo mode is good.

[@925Gamers]

Y’all are definitely right about dice miner! Such an amazing game at 2! Love rolling all those dice!!!

[@TheBrothersMurph]

So. Many. Dice.

[@FemmeSensei]

Great pace and content guys, thank you...some interesting choices with great info!

[@TheBrothersMurph]

[@dominikgarbauer6883]

I guess Lewis & Clark is one of those games too. Didn't play it with more than two players though but I imagine the down time gets bigger and bigger with more players.

[@boardgameaddiction7081]

I was thinking the same thing about Lewis & Clark.

[@johnathanrhoades7751]

Roads and Boats, Antiquity, Race for the Galaxy, Dice Throne, Agricola, most campaign/adventure games (TMB, Gloomhaven, Arkham Horror LCG, Tainted Grail, etc.) and multiplayer solitaire games as well.

[@gingerscholar152]

the way I approach Five Tribes is I think about what I wanted (markets, viziers, genies) and then look for that specifically. It also helps that I can usually recognize board states almost immediately for this game, so I can quickly see what's "possible"

[@shortydancer]

That’s how i play it too! Its the best way to play. I’ve played 3 player games that take an hour and 20 minutes this way.

[@gingerscholar152]

@@shortydancer one trick I use every now and then for board state is to think about parity. If you think of the board like a chess board, and the square you start on as a black square, if the number of Meeples is odd, you will land on a white square, and if the number of meeples is even, you will land on a black square.

[@shortydancer]

@@gingerscholar152 lol I think I’m the same way. But I first count how many spaces away I want to go. Then if that number is odd or even, then the meeple count must also be odd or even. Help a lot when you have a bunch of meeples on one tile and you want to do a big move where you go in a circle.

[@christofferthormannjensen3371]

Castles of Burgundy, Grand Austria Hotel and Ark Nova come to mind for me. I agree with Empires of the North as well.

[@blackboardgaming5348]

I've been playing the solo mode of Earth over the past week. I finally played a 4-player game, and it was way too chaotic. Definitely will be playing it only at 2-player moving forward.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Good to know!

[@brucebush5744]

Azul isa good game all round - but it’s at 2 players where the meanness of the drafting mechanism really shines.

[@annabahatska1433]

I absolutely agree with the idea, that if you can’t play a game as a two-players, you hardly ever get to play it! Of course, there are the lucky ones, who have a group of like minded individuals, - but so many have only one steady gaming partner (a child or a spouse, mostly). I would really like to play Terracotta Army! My own list is very light and basic: Patchwork (and P Doodle), Carcassonne: Hunters and Gatherers, and Little Prince. That latter one by Antoine Bauza is my favorite wind up after a hard day / hygge game. PS The way Nick gets excited about points is just super charming!..

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Hehehe nick loves points!

[@rolling.reggie]

- I was hoping Dice Miner would be on here, so many dice! - same with Ark Nova, just time wise 2 is best. - Wow, surprised to learn that my grp may be in the minority, as we love Unmatched 2v2 or 3p FFA. - Five Tribes still on my list gotta try it. - I would add Wingspan, SCOUT, & Res Arcana.

[@raytaylor2772]

Games that should really be "2 player only" but are advertised as more than 2... Dice Throne Ashes Star Wars Rebellion Games that are best at 2 that you did not already say (but are actually good games at 3+) Azul Earth Res Arcana Race for the Galaxy Gloomhaven Arkham Horror The Card Game Spirit Island Paladins of the West Kingdom And that is just off the top of my head! :)

[@TheBrothersMurph]

[@stephanie7679]

That round 3 starting dice roll in Dice Miner at 2 players is bonkers.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

It’s so awesome

[@veronikarumyantseva5773]

My favorite games for two: GWT, Austria hotel and BOONLAKE!!! Ye)))))

[@Blackwolf9]

Spirit Island - Less things you have to 5head about and way shorter game. It is just so much easier to cooperate and strategize in a 2 player game.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Good call

[@teejleague3838]

I like Roccoco best at 2 and probably Raccoon Tycoon too. Same reason you guys cited of getting to do more stuff! Agree 100% with Dice Miner.

[@MrScrawnjuan]

You can play more, but Dice Throne would be my recommendation. Even though it's likely predominantly played at 2 players anyway.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Very good call I put that firmly into the category of unmatched where “it’s more than 2 players” but we know what’s actually up

[@adamwojtasiak6204]

I really like running escape the dark castle at two players!! Another fun one is calico!

[@markdijkmans7651]

The guy in the lower right corner by Grande Austria Hotel is hilarious. I think it's unintentional but funny never the less 🤣🤣

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Oh it’s 100% intentional nick drew that haha

[@boardgameaddiction7081]

The Quest for El Dorado is a good game at all player counts, but I agree it's best at 2 players. As you mentioned, it's more strategic at 2 while also being more forgiving since it's possible to draw a hand that does nothing for one meeple, but is perfect for the other. I often try to leave each meeple with a different path forward so I can minimize turns with wasted cards. But the #1 reason I prefer it at 2 players is that you have more time to build your deck. You only have to keep pace with 1 person and they have to get 2 meeples to the end. So it's less risky to choose to go slow and buy up cards to enable you to race ahead later in the game. You can also let 1 meeple hang out by card destruction spots to thin your deck while advancing your other meeple with the cards you want to keep.

[@bennguyen1313]

Of all the games mentioned, do any of them play well digitally on PC? BoonLake Grand Austria Hotel Arc Nova Quest for El Dorado Empires of The North Dice Miner Five Tribes Terracotta Army Great Western Trail - Argentina Unmatched

[@kjellkanin]

Interesting list! We only ever play at 2 player (except for games that are available on BGA), and I agree with the games I've played, although I thought maybe The Quest for El Dorado would be better at higher player counts (though your points do make sense). As hard as it is to get more people to want to play, it is great some games work best at 2. I'm lucky to have someone to play with at all, I suppose!

[@nfischer091]

Disney Villainous for sure. Too much downtime between turns with more players. It's also hard to track more than one opponent's progress to know when to use a fate action on them!

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Agreed!

[@willie9764]

Hah, my pavlovian response upon hearing 'Grand Austria Hotel" to look at the box art did NOT disappoint. 🤣🤣🤣

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Hehehe we were hoping someone would notice!

[@andrewcallahan1642]

I see where you're coming from about GWT, though having played it only recently for the first and second time (2 player and 3 player, respectively), I actually really enjoyed it at 3. Certain upgrades, like the movement points, became more useful. Everyone was collecting income from everyone, route decisions became an actual choice to make, removing hazards was more viable. It is a longer game, but I thoroughly loved the decision making at 3 players.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

It’s a great game at all player counts honestly. And now I just wanna play it haha

[@Muffin_Stuffin]

Big fan of Solo and small count player games. Especially since my game group would mainly be/is my small family of three. And I play games by myself way more than with family. All that being said, I think a good idea for a video would be 2 (or more) player games that play best at 1 player. Not by any means my favorite game, just more of a filler game that I have is Minecraft Explorers. To me this is a one player game that two people can take turns playing.

[@bigkittytank]

lol - that's a funny alternate cover for grand Austria hotel...

[@FemmeSensei]

KINDA disagree with Ark Nova here...too many breaks can churn the decks too much, and there are ways of progressing the game a little more quickly and triggering a break more quickly in some circumstances. I like the pace of the game just fine at 4 and 3. A couple of 2-player favorites are Wild Serengeti and Ares Expedition vs a higher player count.

[@TheBrothersMurph]

I can dig it. Glad you like it at 3-4 that’s dope. Really excited for the expansion btw!

[@paulhamrick3943]

I'm surprised to see The Quest for El Dorado on here. I have not played it yet, but because it's somewhat of a racing game I had assumed it would be best at 3 or 4 players. I'll have to try it in order to find out! Definitely not going to let these Murph brothers dictate the player counts I play at! No siree!

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Hahaha definitely don’t let us dictate anything this is a smart way to live!

[@simonmcg23]

One of the reasons that games are best with two players is asymmetry. And I don't mean with different starting player. Factions like root or Scythe. Basically, I think if you are diagonally opposite the board, reading a row of cards with small text upside down, you are at a tremendous disadvantage. Setting up such a game and off the top of my head. Coinbra is one. The two players can be sitting right in front of the board and they can be reading everything and there is no disadvantage and no getting up to try and read what the cards say.

Our game that we would only play with 2 players is Villainous, it plays great as back to back game, but with more players it becomes too chaotic

[@tbahr123]

Plus it can get soooo slow at higher player counts and there’s nothing to do when it’s not your turn

[@TheBrothersMurph]

Villainous was on our short list for sure. Completely agree

[@grog3514]

Villainous is a 1 player game. The box contains several individual mini games connected by theme. Comparing scores at the end is meaningless. If I am racing my friend in my house but his finish line is the door and mine is the fireplace, did we actually race each other or just participate in the same activity in the same place?

[@play-it-or-not]

@@grog3514 I'm not sure I understand what you mean, did you mean multi-player solo? This is an asymmetric game when each character has its own goal, but there is some interaction because of the Fates cards being played. There is not too much depth to it, still a fun puzzle when you play it at 2. Luck of the cards draw can be certainly upsetting for some players, usually you have some cards in your deck that would allow you to search for what you need or you can frequently use a discard action.

[@grog3514]

@@play-it-or-not the fate cards are a lazy attempt at player interaction. It isn't asymmetrical because there is no shared board and no one is playing the same game. Only mini games that are contained under the same name.

[@dandurkin9735]

Great list! I immediately thought of Five Tribes - I'll play it any count, but with two, I think you can better combo back to back turns (I enjoy manipulating the bidding for turn order!).

[@dago6410]

Idk does anyone else have it like me, re/ the point around 8:05, where i am the OPPOSITE. Like, if the game has counting points (which is not my favourite win condition at all), i will like it more if its like 7 to 5 to 4 to 3, than 76 to 54 to 89 to 102 points. I hate VPs, but if a game absolutely needs them (as a lot of them do sadly), at least... mąkę each one count.

Personally, I think GWT is best at 3 players. My player count preference would be 3,2, then 4. With 3, there are more of my opponents buildings out there, which means I have to plan out my turns a little more. And I like that. With 2, it's way more open. I can more easily avoid all their buildings and traps, so they feel useless. With 4, I think the road is too clogged and keeps me from getting to KC more often.
