And Scrabble? You just have to be really good at words, and often only one of you is (I’ll share my favourite Scrabble replacements below!).īut happily, there are so many more two-player board games available now, and just in time for Valentine’s Day, I’d like to share my favourites. And Risk just takes FOREVER, and can get vicious, too. Monopoly can be a dangerous game, because it tends to be quite vicious and cut-throat. When we were first married, most of the two-player board games that were around were the traditional ones– Monopoly, Risk, Scrabble, Boggle. But since then, Keith and I have found so many more board games for couples that we love, and I thought it was time for a revised version of this post–especially right in time for Valentine’s Day! I originally ran this post back in 2014, and it went really big. So I thought I would write a post on games you can play with your spouse that need only two players. And here at Bare Marriage, we’re all about fun marriages!
Absolutely! Best of all–finding a board game for two players can build your marriage.
