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?
ascension is one of my favs, its a deckbuilder similar to the more popular dominion, but has really cool art (at least with the early expansions, the later ones i dont care for).
basically any game in the oniverse is also good like onirim, sylvion, cyberion, etc. those ones are made for single player but they also have two-player co-op (never tried it though).
tiny epic galaxies is also pretty good if youre looking for a small fast paced space adventure
theres probs better introductions to board gaming lmao and i dont know many co-op games aside from aeons end and spirit island (both of which are very good) but i like to play these personally
