What's the Best Board Game? 

Even if you don’t play board games regularly, you probably pull them out around the holidays to foster quality time with your family and/or avoid any in-depth conversations with your MAGA uncle. So for this special edition of Co-Op, we want to know which tabletop games are your go-tos, and why.

Much like the subscription box and vinyl record Co-Ops, we’re not going to be voting for a winner here, but we will honor the games that get the most recommendations in a roundup post later this week. So head on down to the comments to nominate your pick. Do not pass go, do not collect $200.

1) Your nomination should contain the name of a specific board game, why you think it’s the best, a link where it can be purchased, and an image.
2) Vote by starring someone else’s nomination.
3) Please do not duplicate nominations.
