With Paradox Interactive's announcement that it will be turning many of its series into board games, the question arises? What other franchises could use the board game treatment?
There have been quite a few board game adaptations over the years, (as our own Matt Miller has cataloged as part of his Top of the Table column), but I would definitely like to see more. Advance Wars is the first series that comes to mind for me. I've actually thought about how Advance Wars might become a board game more than I'd care to admit, and I think that if you simplified some of the damage percentages and terrain bonuses, you already have a pretty good board games on your hand. If you're not going to make another digital entry in the series, Nintendo, go analog!
So what game do you think deserves its own cardboard spinoff? Looking for a way to replicate Mass Effect romances on a board? Want an Overwatch board game where players can take turns refusing to stay on the payload? Let us know in the comments.
