Gift Ideas For People Who Love To Play Board Games
23
items Board Game lovers take gaming VERY seriously, and a great way to make them feel loved is to support this particular addiction/hobby. haha This is a list of cool gifts for them that aren't more board games.
You can ask around and find out their favorite store to buy board games. And get them a gift card for that store! Even better if it a small locally-owned shop. :) Please don't buy them board games yourself! Trust me, your beloved board gamer knows EXACTLY what they want, and would love to go to the store themselves!
Gift Card for a Friendly Local Game Shop.
Ask your beloved board gamer nerd what their favorite game is, look at the box and take note of the color palette. Then go and order them a set of custom resin dice in that color palette. The aforementioned nerd will be so touched that you cared so deeply about them and their hobby. And these fit perfectly in a stocking at Christmas! #affiliate
Custom Resin Dice Set
They would probably love a new dice tray! Take it from me (a fellow board gamer nerd) the sound of the dice rolling around in a leather tray is music to our ears. This one is absolutely stunning, and it opens up to store flat. Satisfying and luxurious magnetic closures add a nice touch. #affiliate
A Beautiful Dice Tray
Every serious board gamer needs a cool dice tower. This one is really neat, as the dice are rolled down the guard tower and into the jail! This doubles as a dice storage tray, as the guard tower fits inside and there is a nice lid for when it's not i... Bonus points for being a compact rectangle… it'll be easy to slot it in to a spot on the Kallax shelf!

What color do you play? Well, if you've gone to the trouble to accessorize your outfit with that color meeple, you will totally get dibs. There are 7 colors to choose from, and I happen to know that the designer will add colors if you ask. It's me :)

You can give them a score book with their family name on it! Even better, if they have a board gaming friend group, and this group has a name, you could get that name on the book. I just know this would be appreciated! #affiliate

This makes me laugh, and a board game geek will cherish this forever! Also, it's an oversized mug, you know, to hold enough caffeine to get through a long game night. :)
Funny Mug
Board game nerds get cold… they sometimes don't move much hahaha. A funny hoodie would be the star of game night! This one in particular makes me laugh. It's bright and cheerful :)
Hoodie
Pillows are an awesome gift for a board gamer, and these particular ones are quite subtle. A non-gamer would never guess that they are board game related. Azul is a really popular board game, and it's been around a while. Most board gamers know Azul, and many of those have played it (and like it) as well. The designs on these pillows look like tiles from the game. Brilliant!

Also funny, I love the aesthetic… all bright and cheerful. But if you look closer, you can see that a meeple has been impaled on the unicorn's horn. A bit of dark humor, but a board game addict will love this!

T-shirts are a great gift for your dear board game loved one. They can wear it to a convention or to a game night with friends. This particular one is funny, with an angry meeple riding a tank. Maybe their opponents will feel intimidated?!

This is a great gift for a board game addict for many reasons. At the game table, it is ideal to have a beverage that won't spill.

(there are 4 colors of this particular bottle) #affiliate

I'm sure Santa wouldn't mind! #affiliate
