Cooperative board games have increased in popularity in recent years. They are played for many different reasons, and playing them may involve assuming a role, solving riddles and engaging in battle. Players are tempted by the choices and challenges offered by the games as well as their fantasy worlds and characters that tickle the imagination – as well as the fact that you can affect the outcome of the game.

Cooperative board games are most often played face to face. In the longest games, players will gather around a table for up to dozens of sessions, which allows for nurturing friendships or meeting new people while playing. The most extensive cooperative games contain hundreds of hours of gameplay, requiring true commitment and patience!
