Yesterday I played three scenarios of Undaunted: Normandy with my teenage son. For both of us it was the first time playing the game. And, different to several other games, my son seemed to have fun for real - not only to shut ME up.

The game is really easy to learn, the system feels quite elegant, if also pretty luck-of-the-draw-based. But yeah, that was enjoyable.

Which games did you play over the weekend? What yould you recommend for a 15yo typical teenager offspring?

Thank you so much for the overview. I shall have a look at it. While I love deckbuilding, I much prefer when this is embedded into something else. Clank is a good example taking the concept of a deckbuilder further. However, some others like Aeons-End I did not enjoy that much. Same with Battle for Hogwarts. I have yet to find a good coop deckbuilder and prefer the duel/ competitive versions so far.

Take a look at Dead Reckoning and Edge of Darkness. Both combine deckbuilding with other aspects. Also notable: Cubitos and Heat
