As the darkness of winter descends and people are driven to gather indoors for the holidays, it suddenly becomes a lot more important to have good board games on hand. If your board game shelf is looking a little barren, worry not; Amazon's Black Friday sale has the excellent Azul for just $21.49 – a 33% drop from its usual price.
For the uninitiated, Azul is a strategic tile placement game in which two to four players are tasked with creating mosaics to win. It's on IGN's best beginner board games list – so at over $10 off, if you've never tried it, now is a good time.
Black Friday Deal: Azul Down to $21.49 at Amazon
Azul made our list of best board game classics for good reason. In our review, writer Matt Thrower said that, "Between its beautiful presentation, simplicity and depth there’s little doubt that Azul has earned its place as a modern classic." And at this price? It's certainly worth picking up for your board game collection.
If you're looking for more board game deals, there's plenty to explore from non-Amazon Black Friday sales. At the moment, Target has a 'Buy 1 Get 1 50% off Board Games and Puzzles' offer going on as part of its Black Friday sale, and other deals will surely pop up as the week continues.
