Games which do not end friendships, but strengthen them. Games where working together works and loners fall behind.

Can be something simple like The Game or reach any complexity level. Coming to think of it, bring on the complexity. 🙂

    Dorfromantik: this is co-op tile placement game, with some interesting strategy. With each new game, you’ll unlock additional tiles that will let you score more points for the next time. This won Spiel des Jahres in 2023.

    Camel Up: while not exactly a co-op, players place bets on a camel race. It’s a fun party-ish game that feels more like the board against the players.

    Any of the Zombicide games (including Massive Darkness): these games are lighter dungeon crawler type of a board game. While there’s some strategy, it’s mostly about killing enemies, rolling dice, and getting loot.

    Gloomhaven: a deck building, dungeon crawler, this game is much more complex than Zombicide. It’s rated #4 on BBG. Be ready for a long set up, though!

    Kingdom Death: Monster: I have never gotten this game to the table, but it’s a boss battle, dice rolling, campaign kind of game, where you can loot the bosses and craft gear.
