In this screen-infested world we live in, sometimes it’s nice to unplug and play a game that doesn’t require electricity. Board games are now more fun and versatile than ever, providing anywhere between a few minute’s and a whole month’s worth of entertainment for you, your friends, family, or even an entire party. In fact, with the rise of solo board games, you don’t even need a group at all. The only drawback is that this non-digital pastime can be pricy. Thankfully, Prime members can score huge board game discounts thanks to Prime Day 2024.

That’s right, you need a Prime membership to take advantage of most of these deals. You can sign up here, even for just one month, and you’ll have access to all the Prime Day deals. But if all you want are board games, you can see all the board games on sale here. Or, if you prefer a curated list, we’ve picked through the deals and highlighted the best of the bunch below.

Board Game Deals for Prime Day

Sentinels of The Multiverse: Definitive Edition

Lots of these games have earned a spot on our various best board games lists. The Fox in the Forest, for instance, is on both our favorite card drafting games list, as well as the best board games for couples to play.

In addition to all the board games on sale, you can also pick up expansions for many of them at a discounted rate as well. Click on through to the whole sale to see a bunch more board games available at a discount for Prime Day.

Is Prime Day a Good Time to Buy Board Games?

As someone at IGN who covers both deals and board games, I can tell you there are only really two times per year when you’re guaranteed to find excellent deals on board games. Those times are Prime Day and Black Friday. And while you can’t go wrong buying board games on Black Friday, you also don’t want to miss the opportunity to pick up killer board game and card game deals during Prime Day – assuming you’re a Prime member.

The discounts listed above represent some of the best-ever deals we’ve seen on many of the games. You’re not likely to find better deals even if you wait for Black Friday. And by then, you’ll have no doubt missed out on opportunities to play these games with friends and family. So I’d definitely recommend picking up anything that looks like a good buy during Prime Day. If you’re on the fence, check Camelcamelcamel, a site that tracks price history for items on Amazon. You’ll be able to see when and if the price has ever gone lower, on board games or any item you’re considering pick up this Prime Day.
