Hi all, not sure if there's a better place in the fediverse to ask, but I'm looking for suggestions for a 2 player game. Something that is pretty quick in terms of set up, learning, and play. My go to for this scenario right now is the Tacocat game by the makers of Exploding Kittens, but I'd like to branch out and try some others if they fit the bill. Doesn't necessarily have to be for 2 players specifically but preferable if that's what it's designed for. Heck doesn't necessarily have to be a board game really, just something to play face to face (I mean, I don't really know what the alternative would be other than a straight up card game but that's why I'm asking for recommendations).

Raptor I tried with a buddy on a whim, it was fun, quite strategic, not too hard to understand after going through the rules once. The idea is that one player is a mama dino trying to get the babies out of the lab, with the other player as the scientists trying to catch the babies or tranquilize the mama.

The lower value cards allow you to do a special move that helps you, but higher cards will give you movement actions based on the value difference of your opponents' card choice. So you need to think of which cards you and your opponent might have in your decks and each others' hands.
