- Hive - like chess @mantej.eth 
- Splendor Duel @jackmcdermott 👀
- Santorini - also like chess a bit but variable player powers
- Hanamikoji - beautiful art + back and forth

I was suggesting Splendor, not Splendor Duel (you can play Splendor with 2 players 😎)

duel is a better game for 2p from what i can tell tho

sick thanks for looking at it more in depth

Ok I just played it with a friend to test it out with an open mind and found that it’s:

1. Significantly more luck-dependent (bad)
2. Significantly more complicated/hard to learn (bad)
3. Encourages buying more cards instead of hoarding tokens/gems (good)

So all in all I think a Splendor tournament with 2 players would be better for players learning the game, also is it possible to do a tourney with 3 or 4 players per game and do a scoring system? That being said I liked Splendor duel okay so nbd either way 😎
