What to know about board games

A board game is, at its core, a game played at a table. It typically includes some kind of pieces that are moved around on a surface or a board in a way described in the accompanying rules. Some board games are strategy games where the goal is to find the best tactics, sometimes with an element of luck, while some board games are even entirely based on luck. It is entirely subjecitve which types of board games one prefers, but at Spilforsyningen we have something for everyone. The earliest board games were typically variations of the same theme: a battle between two armies, where the goal was to defeat the other. We still see this reflected in many modern board games, but today board games are a much broader category, with new ideas constantly being developed and concepts sometimes turned upside down.

We have chosen to divide our selection of board games into subcategories so you can more easily find fun games that fit your needs.
