2024 Holiday Gift Guide
2024 was a year FULL of incredible games, not only from us, but from hundreds of other publishers!
Board games are one of the best gifts you can get for your loved ones, and we’re here to help you figure out the best picks for them. From a team of nerds who’ve played A LOT of games this year, we are proud to share with you our 2024 Gift Guide!
Our Top AEG Picks:
Let's Go! To Japan!
We couldn’t help but notice that Japan has been the TOP of many folks’ dream destinations. Flights are a little pricey, but Let’s Go to Japan isn’t!
Designed by Josh Wood, Let’s Go to Japan is about planning your dream vacation. Let’s Go to Japan has been one of the hottest games of the year, and it’s a great game for both game experts and newbies. Pick up Let’s Go to Japan for the travel lover in your life– or for the brave friend who books the flights, grabs the reservation, and emails the itinerary 2 weeks before.
Cascadia
So you got really into board games, and now you’re trying to get your friends and family into it too. Where do you start? We know the perfect game to get them hooked: Cascadia!
Cascadia already has its own reputation in the tabletop gaming community as a game that’s elegantly designed, easy to teach, and perpetually puzzly. If you’re trying to introduce more games to your loved ones, then Cascadia is a great gateway game for many tables!
Undergrove
Mushrooms! Mushrooms for everyone!
If you have someone in your life that is a fan of all things cozy and scientifically intriguing, then Undergrove is the perfect gift. Undergrove is designed by Elizabeth Hargrave and Mark Wootton, two nature-lovers who put their expertise and love for the natural world into this game.
Undergrove is all things science and nature loving, and perfect for folks who aren’t necessarily looking for a high-competition experience. Think more cozy game night with cocoa and fireplace ASMR than adrenaline and hard math.
