Board game recommendation quiz template

Asks the questions a good game shop assistant asks: how long you have, who's at the table, what puts them off and what they've enjoyed before. Pairs get their own question about competing or cooperating, so nobody playing as two is sent a party game, and larger groups pick the evening they want from four results, each with well-known games to try.

Questions to consider

  • Which games do you have in stock for each result, and how often will you update them?
  • Should families with young children get their own result with games made for them?
  • Would you like to invite people to a demo night or a games library if you run one?
  • Is this a gift finder, where the person answering isn't the one who will play?

How to use the responses

Read the favourite game and avoid answers together: they tell you more than any single result. Someone who loves one game but hates taking things from other players is a clear hint for your next suggestion. Export to CSV to see which kinds of game night people want most, and use it to plan stock and events.

How to customize and share it

  1. 1Replace the example games in each result with titles you stock and want to recommend.
  2. 2Add or remove options in the last two questions, keeping one branch for each result.
  3. 3Embed the quiz on your shop's site or share the link before a game night.

Frequently asked questions

How do I pick a board game for my group?

Start with player count and how long you want to play, then think about the mood: laughing, cooperating, a light contest or a long strategy game. What your group already enjoys is the best clue.

What is a gateway board game?

A game with simple rules and real decisions that works well for people new to modern board games. Ticket to Ride and Carcassonne are common examples.

Can I change the games this quiz recommends?

Yes. Each result is an ending you can rewrite, so swap in the games you stock and edit the final question to match.

What are good board games for two players?

Games designed for two, such as 7 Wonders Duel, Patchwork and Jaipur, stay tense in a way many bigger games don't at two. Pairs who prefer teaming up can try cooperative games like Pandemic.
