Cooperative Board Games

About

In a cooperative board game the whole table is on the same side. You plan together, share the bad luck, and win or lose as a team against the game itself. They are a great fit for mixed groups, families and anyone who doesn't enjoy beating their friends. Good first picks: Pandemic (save the world from four diseases), Harry Potter Hogwarts Battle (a deckbuilder that grows over seven years), and the Unlock! escape room card games. For atmosphere, Mysterium has one ghost giving clues through dream cards. For a long, story-heavy campaign, look at Arkham Horror Third Edition, Mansions of Madness or Arkham Horror: The Card Game.
