Games which do not end friendships, but strengthen them. Games where working together works and loners fall behind.

Can be something simple like The Game or reach any complexity level. Coming to think of it, bring on the complexity. 🙂

Daybreak and the Slay the Spire-boardgame edition are both cooperative and plenty of fun.

I've been eyeing the sts boardgame but kinda hesitant, especially since I love the original game. How does it compare to the original, if you don't mind me asking? A lot of sts' fun was building an OP broken deck on the fly, not sure if this feeling was successfully transferred over.

I've only played it once, but I would say it's quite a different experience with some similar elements. I felt some amount of OP deck building when I managed to get a Heavy Blade/strength deck rolling with ironclad, but the focus was a lot more on the cooperative elements and planning out ideal moves. It felt like there was far less margin for error and it being a lot easier to die, fwiw.

Interesting that it appears harder, perhaps the slightly different format kinda forces you to relearn certain strategies? My partner and I both love sts so it definitely looks like a good buy
