Like the title! For someone getting into board games, what would you recommend? Bonus points if it is or can be played cooperatively, with 2 players, and double bonus points if it has a sci-fi theme (like, grand sci-fi), though the previous points are more important.

What do you like to play? Arcs and Earthborne Rangers both look cool to me, but wanted to ask here too! Anyone have experience with those two?

If you like deck building, Dominion is one of my favorite board games. You build your deck along the course of the game and every game you choose 10 different card types to have available to players so each game is a little different depending on which cards are in play. There are a few expansions that add some cards that have really interesting mechanics.
