Games for two
Two-player games where you sit opposite each other with the screen between you. Just like a real board game, only without tidying up afterwards.
Some games are best for two. On GameBase the board turns so each player has their side facing them. It feels like a real board game on the table – just without having to pick up the pieces afterwards.
Choose from strategy classics like Checkers, Nine Men’s Morris, Reversi and Mancala, quick games like Four in a Row and Tic-Tac-Toe, or the dice game Yatzy.
Crazy Eights
The classic card game: match the suit or the number, use an 8 to change suit, and be the first to get rid of all your cards.
Who Took the Cake?
The birthday cake has vanished! Move around the house, ask sneaky questions, tick off your secret notebook and find out who took it.
Ten Thousand
The classic dice game where you race to 10,000 points. Roll six dice, set the scoring ones aside and bank your points in time – or lose the lot.
Liar’s Dice
Five hidden dice each. Bid on how many of a kind are on the table, or call liar. The last player with dice left wins.
Backgammon
The classic dice game for two. Roll the dice, race your 15 pieces home, and play matches to 1, 3 or 5 points with a doubling cube.
Viking Chess
The Vikings’ very own board game: the king has to escape to a corner while the attackers try to surround him. Hnefatafl on 11 × 11 and Tablut on 9 × 9.
Nine Men’s Morris
The classic board game with nine pieces each. Place your pieces, move them along the lines and make mills so you can remove your opponent’s pieces.

Move your marbles across the star and into the triangle on the other side. Jump over any marble, and make long chains of jumps – for 2 to 6 players.

Dots and Boxes
The good old pen-and-paper game: draw one line at a time, close a box and get another turn. For 2 to 4 players around one iPad.

Make a secret code of four colours and let the others crack it. A duel for two or a race for three or four – on one iPad or with a TV + phones.

Hide five ships at sea and take turns firing at your opponent’s fleet. Play on one iPad or TV + phones, with the TV as the battlefield and the phones as your secret maps.
