We already have Carcassonne, and it’s one of our favourite! Don’t know why we didn’t play it last week 😀 (Offtopic, but if you play videogames, I am currently playing Carto, which uses Carcassonne’s gameplay, and adds further puzzles and story to it. Highly recommended!)
Other than those we also have Dominion, Lost Cities, Dungeon Mayhem and Point Salad. Though I have been thinking about getting my kid a bit into D&D. He loves video games, so I believe it should attract him. Just having trouble figuring out how to start, specially since my wife isn’t a big gamer, and I don’t know how she will feel about goblins and orcs.
How is Gloomhaven, for kids (and non-gamers adults)? Just read about it, and seem like a good first step (but an extensive one) into Dungeon Crawling, without going full D&D. Though that is just by reading few snippets, I haven’t even begun the research into it yet. So, I could be completely wrong about it.
Not counting Gloomhaven, Munchkin is next on my wishlist, but that too needs a little bit more research.
I have not tried Carto but have been playing Dorfromantik on steam, which is like a hexagonal puzzle carcassonne! I love it!
Have not tried Gloomhaven yet, so I could not say.
So your kid plays Dominion? If so, Clank is a must! Its a dungeon crawling deckbuilder, its amazing!
Another option for DnD is to ask ChatGPT to DM for you, this way both of you can play. There is a bit of a learning curve to understand how to ask ChatGPT certain things but I think a lot of people already are using it for that. So there might be some tips to be found online!
Thanks!
