Category Description for Cooperative Games
We play a lot of board games in our family - mostly competitive ones! However, it's nice to switch up game night and play a cooperative game where all of the players are working together toward a goal, collectively save the world, or solve a mystery. Cooperative games foster team spirit and give players a chance to use their individual talents as everyone works toward achieving a goal. If you haven't tried this alternative to playing together, here's an assortment of cooperative games for all ages.
