My son’s 5th birthday is coming up and I would like to gift him a board game. Usually only the two of us play and he likes for example Carcassonne Junior, Brandon the Nrave or Karuba Junior. Any good suggestions for a new game, maybe also something collaborative?

    CoraQuest is a fun kid-friendly cooperative dungeon crawl that my 6yo and I really enjoy. (Edit): Rereading, I forgot the part about your kid turning five, so this may be a bit advanced.

    Outfoxed! (2014) has been mentioned several times and I also recommend it. It’s a cooperative, clue-esque deduction game.

    My recommendations would be karak as an introduction to dungeon crawlers, ice cool for dexterity, stone age junior for the memory advantage of kids and king domino as the next step

      Thank you! Karak is on my to play list, but do you think that it is already suitable for a 5 year old?

        Yes, my son started at 5 1/2 but you could go lower, since it is coop, you play with the children and can help them. It‘s also a good entry to counting. Dice roll + weapon strength etc.
