Sure, you may think the 48-hour Amazon Prime Day event and its fallout is just about laptops, Kindles, or TVs, but tabletop gaming gets its fair share of attention too. Last year’s Prime Day offered discounts on everything from well-known classics to the best board games, for example, and this year saw some similar action – action that has continued, too. In fact, we’ve been very pleasantly surprised by how darn great some of 2022’s offers have been so far and still are. When you combine that with how expensive most tabletop games are at full price, those Prime Day board game deals that are still going represent even better value.
GamesRadar’s team knows their board games, so we’ve included useful tips on what the games are good for, and more all here on this page. Read on for everything you need to know to make the most of the Prime Day board game deals that are still available.

While this is now a bit unlikely to grant you access to any special deals now that the event has finished, it might be worth it to save on shipping still and you’ll also bag the extra benefits like video and music streaming and Prime gaming. Just remember to cancel it before the $14.99/£7.99 per month cost kicks in if you’re not interested in fully signing up.

Pandemic | £44.99 £22.95 at Amazon (opens in new tab)
Save £21 – OK, so the theme is a bit on the nose considering the last few years. But Pandemic existed long before COVID and is one of the best games out there, so seeing it drop to just five pence off its lowest ever price is pretty stellar. Trust us, it’s a must-play.

Linkee | £22.99 £16.60 at Amazon (opens in new tab)

Prime Day board game deals – FAQ
The competition (like Best Buy and Walmart) get in on the action with price cuts of their own
Fortunately, that doesn’t mean you can’t take advantage of reductions here and there. Some savings do go live for all Amazon users during the event. Plus, it’s worth noting that the competition (like Best Buy and Walmart) get in on the action with price cuts of their own.
What to expect from Prime Day board game deals 2022
Much like Prime Day video game deals, tabletop doesn’t always make the biggest wave during this sales event; many of the offers won’t stray far from discounts we get all year round. However, that isn’t to say you can’t save a good chunk of money if you keep your eyes peeled. A saving is still a saving, after all.
As an example, you’re practically guaranteed a win with classic board games such as Catan, the Pandemic board game, and Ticket to Ride. Even though they enjoy a reduction on the regular, we usually find their Prime Day prices to be better than usual.
Similarly, good parent-present candidates like Wingspan or Azul tend to be more affordable during sales like Prime Day as well. Because these can clock in at $50+ normally, it’s a good time to invest.
It’s a great opportunity to pick up cheaper party titles
All the same, we’d recommend keeping the closest eye on premium hobby games such as Terraforming Mars, Disney Villainous, Twilight Imperium, Gloomhaven (not to mention its smaller prequel, Jaws of the Lion), or Scythe. These also have their prices cut during sales events, and while most record lows are saved for Black Friday, you can still get the likes of Villainous – which doesn’t normally enjoy a reduction – for much less than normal.
It’s a great opportunity to pick up cheaper party titles by studios like Big Potato Games, too. Examples such as Blockbuster: The Game can come crashing down to a mere handful of dollars during events like this, reducing them to impulse-purchase territory.
Naturally, Prime Day board game deals aren’t the only things worth looking into. The sales event also has a lot of other tech at massively reduced prices, including Prime Day laptop deals and Prime Day TV deals. If you want to keep your focus on tabletop though, don’t miss the top board games for adults.
