very nice list, I did not expect to see here a game a hadn't heard about, specially cuz 2-player games are my most played games, I own 78 2-player only games, so Odin's Ravens and Mr. Jack will definitely go on the wishlist, they really intrigued me! thank you for the great content! : )
Wow sounds like you know a ton of 2p games! My gf and i are looking for one that is intermediate difficulty. We want something strategic and replayable, wthat can be completed in 30-45 minutes. Any suggestions?
@@jckfrost36absolutely! so the first game that comes to mind is "Ceasar! Seize Rome in 20 mins minutes", that one is an area control game with very crunchy decisions and it does actually play in about 20 minute. if you want something more of a card game that is intermediate in difficulty and also plays in about 30 minutes, I would immediately suggest "beer and bread" for me the three best two-player only games of all time would be no. 1 : 7 Wonders Duel ( with its two expansions mixed in) it has an app also no. 2 : SkyTeam .... obviously, lol 3: splendor Deul and you did not ask about this, but if you ever get into trick taking, there is a two-player only trick taking game called "claim" ; also a cooperative trick taking game called Sail, I like those because they are such small boxes that you can put them in a man's bag or in your wife's purse and play them anywhere. now these next games are not 2 player only games, but they live permanently in my EDC, (because they are super teeny tiny boxes and infinitely replayable) these are "Scout" and "sea salt and paper" , but they play amazingly at 2.
Nice list... Splendor Duel is one of my wife and I's favorites. Some other good ones: -7 Wonders Duel -Caper Europe -Blitzkrieg! -Watergate -Jaipur -Onitama -Star Wars Rebellion -Skulk Hollow -Yinsh
Yesss great list, but I would suggest adding Onitama (this one is a total must have), and Neuroshima Hex (come on its great!) as well as possibly Match of the Century (or watergate but I havent played that one). But yesss great list mostly
I would also suggest for easy to get into 2 player games, Beer and Bread, Tak, boop, aqualin, Kahuna, Onitama, Ceasar! seize rome in 20 minutes, Targi, Paris the city of lights, "Air, Land and Sea", Star Wars the deckbuilding gaem, and of course and above all SPLENDOR DUEL and 7 Wonders Duel 🫠, these last 2, hmmm, masterpieces!
