25 of the BEST Board Game Mobile Apps
Why do we play board games? Of course we play for educational reasons, but we also play for socialization and mental health breaks.
I cannot tell you how many nights I’ve sat up, gripped by anxiety and panic attacks. It sucks big time, but my mental health is improved by playing games and communicating with people (even if I don’t want to.) Having a board game mobile app to distract me is vital.
Pro tip: Learning how to play a game on the app is a great way to transition into playing the board game.
Bonus: Many of these games allow you to play with friends who also have the app. My family often has long nights of playing Risk, and we don’t even have to leave the bathroom kitchen.
If you’re worried about screen time, you might want to check out Circle with Disney.
