The Best Board Games For Teens

Sure, when you think about games for teens, card games and tabletop games probably don't spring to mind. But just because video games rule, that doesn't mean that teens can't cash in on some good old-fashioned tabletop action. In fact, finding the right board games for teens is more about conforming to the occasion than it is about finding the perfect game. Whether you're showcasing your drawing skills in Telestrations, conquering the Eastern Hemisphere in Risk, or showcasing your pop culture knowledge in What Do You Meme, this list covers all the best board games for teens.

It's not surprising to see how board games have seen a resurgence over the years. The sheer variety of games available—plus the originality and universal appeal of many of these games—give players more options than they can count. From popular two-player games to party games for 20+ people, busting out a board game or two is the perfect way to get your game on. In addition to all the classics like Monopoly, Scrabble, and Risk, there are tons (and we mean TONS) of other under-the-radar games that are an absolute blast to play—regardless of how old (or young) you are. 

While the age requirement certainly varies, you can't put a limit on fun. Vote up all the best board games you think are perfect for teens, and vote down all the games that are worth keeping in the box.
