Board Game Arena [Online Resource]

view/request

Board Game Arena advertises itself as “the world’s largest online board gaming community”. It is a community built and run online game platform with over 150 games, from classics like Hearts and Chess to more modern games like Sushi Go and Carcassonne. You can play with friends (playing with friends while on a simultaneous video chat is the closest I’ve come to a board game night during quarantine) or with strangers. On my own I’ve been playing lots of Race for the Galaxy, Hearts, and Seven Wonders. With friends we’ve played Sushi Go and Can’t Stop. It’s a good time. I recommend it for anyone who would like to play board games with friends during quarantine or anyone wants to satisfy a board game itch when an in person game isn’t possible.
