MSRP of Catan and Dominion are both $45; nice try though. I'll give you Betrayal; I didn't realize it was so cheap, especially considering how good it is. Still, Ticket to Ride: $40, Power Grid: $45 MSRP, Pandemic Legacy: $70 MSRP, (the original game is $40), and I could keep going. The notion that most board games are under $30 is flat out wrong.

This is for Christmas and your son wants to be surprised... you gotta go for something big / rare / hard to find. My key for gift giving is to get them something they want, but wouldn't spend the money on themselves. So with that in mind, consider the following:

  1. 7th Continent - Late Pledge This game just finished a hugely successful campaign on Kickstarter. You can late pledge for your son and he will get a copy of the game in 5-6 months and a massive expansion 6 months after that. It's the gift the keeps on giving! Rookie Pledge is $129 + Shipping (https://the7thcontinent.seriouspoulp.com/late_pledge/).

    Guessing a college kid on a budget won't have spent that kinda money, but it's the perfect game for college kids... the intro game takes about 15-25 hrs to complete... College kids don't sleep or do homework, so they've got nothing but time!

  2. The Gallerist or Vinhos: Deluxe Edition (links below). These are both heavier and meatier games than most of what he's got, but with Agricola, he certainly is trending toward meatier fare. The production value on these 2 games is out of this world and the games are really excellent. Again, you're looking to wow your son as opposed to just getting a bunch of games he could pick up at Target or Barnes & Nobles for cheap.

    https://www.amazon.com/Eagle-EAG01653-The-Gallerist/dp/B013EKAFG6

    https://www.amazon.com/Eagle-Gryphon-Games-Vinhos-Deluxe/dp/B01M10GAMH/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1510110859&sr=1-1&keywords=vinhos+deluxe+edition

  3. Mechs vs. Minions - This game was all the rage about 2 yrs ago and sold a limited print run like hotcakes. It has by FAR the best production value when compared to the cost of the game. At $75, it's clear the developers are taking a loss to produce it. The game is lots of fun and has a resetable campaign system for playing a series of games that impact one another. It's a fun co-op game that also has some loose ties to the League of Legends video game series... guessing your son either knows about the game himself or has friends who play. You can still buy it direct from Riot Games for $75 on their website (link below).

    OK, so maybe you don't agree with me and just want to get less "wow" games and opt for less expensive stuff. Here are some I'd recommend that fit in with what else he has and are really solid games:

  4. Viticulture Essential Edition - https://www.amazon.com/Viticulture-Essential-Edition-Board-Game/dp/B018GRSLK4/ref=sr_1_1?s=toys-and-games&ie=UTF8&qid=1510111425&sr=1-1&keywords=viticulture+essential+edition

    This is a near mint condition version... game appears to be out of print, but it's a spectacular game!
u/Farkingbrain · 7 pointsr/boardgames

To clarify what others have said, we think you are confusing two different games. Pandemic and Pandemic Legacy

The "Legacy" game idea is that you take an existing board game and tie a series of game play sessions together. After each session you can potentially modify cards or the board. Obviously, this changes subsequent game plays.

The link is the smile one.

With hurricane Dorian on it's path down the east coast remember to select any charitable organization that will help out those who will be affected. :)

u/raythe3rd · 2 pointsr/boardgames

It's also $38.98 on Amazon. Not quite as good a deal as Cool Stuff, but shipping can make up for that, depending on your needs.

u/ModernSpiderman · 1 pointr/Boardgamedeals

Yes. Fwiw, this is the lowest it has been on Amazon (source: Camelcamelcamel.com)

u/lukestrain · 1 pointr/gaming

Dead of Winter: A super tense semi-cooperative zombie survival game, where one of your teammates might be a traitor.

Agricola: A Euro style game about managing your farm/ranch while feeding your family. Probably my favorite board game.

Small World: A fantasy themed territory control war game with no dice. Very fun.

Pandemic Legacy: Awesome unique board game about saving the world from a deadly virus. Great to play with the same people. The bad things that happen in each game carry over with negative effects in future games, and you can upgrade cities and characters. Heads up though, you can only play this game 12-24 times. Once you finish it you can't really play anymore. Its amazingly fun though and worth every penny.

I could honestly give these all day if you want to PM me for more.

Edit: These games are also usually cheaper at Cool Stuff Inc

u/Profsano · 1 pointr/PandemicLegacy

Okay heres the box, I would be very grateful if its the correct box. Also Im also missing a majority of the legacy cards so unless your find for taking every single picture of those. Its optional. LEGACY RED

u/doctormaxvonsydow · -1 pointsr/boardgames

Here is the AmazonSmile link, for those who participate (highly recommended, as there is 0 cost and it benefits a charity).

The Blue version is much more expensive right now an Amazon, though it did briefly drop to $47.99 recently. Still, this is the cheapest I've ever found the Red version, and it's barely more than the cheapest the Blue version ever went for.
