Welcome to the Tabletop Family Two Hits and a Miss. Three games we’ve recently played, two that found the mark, and one that didn’t.

Board game date nights are a staple around here. They’re a way that we can prioritize and make time for each other even when we can’t go out for the night. Over the years we’ve played a lot of games (over 300 unique games last year alone!) and I have a few tips for choosing the best one when it comes to date night!

A few years ago, Adam began a new tradition where every birthday, he’ll gather up his current favorite games for a big group photo. What began as just holding a few favorites morphed into holding one game for each year, all stacked together precariously, documenting the games he loves today.
