The four-day marathon of Amazon Prime Day is about to end tonight at 11:59 pm PT! There’s hardly any product category that’s not on sale at Amazon at the moment. But each year, Prime Day is one of the best times to stock up on board games, and this year is no different.
It seems like most board games are still on sale right now for Prime Day 2025, and the prices are still great overall. Amazon has changed some products’ pricing day-to-day (like Ticket to Ride and 7 Wonders, which are sadly not on sale for Prime Day #4). So if you see a deal you like, you may want to jump on it unless you’re willing to wait until Black Friday. Below, we’ve highlighted our picks for the best board game deals available now, but you’ll need a Prime membership to get most of them. You can sign up here and save on these last-chance deals.
Save Up to 50% Off Board Games for Prime Day
As an added bonus, a bunch of the games are part of another sale that’s also going on right now that saves you $10 when you spend $40 on select items. So if your game(s) are eligible and you spend more than $40, you’ll get an additional $10 off. As a deal-focused commerce editor, I love it when you can stack a deal on top of a deal. It feels like you’re working the system.
Azul
Included in Amazon’s “Save $10 when you buy $40 of select items”
So what worthy board games are on sale right now? A whole lot of them. Azul is always one of our top sellers when it goes on sale, and it’s currently on sale for $23.99, which is decent considering it usually hovers around the $33 range. The price was slightly lower yesterday though (~$19), which goes to show we shouldn’t wait too long to snag a good deal in case Amazon changes the pricing throughout a sales event! Check out our Azul board game review for details.
Catan
Our board game expert Matt Thrower said “Catan possibly kicked off the entire modern board game movement, thanks to its breakthrough popularity.”
Mysterium
I had to highlight Mysterium here since it dropped in price yet again on Amazon since yesterday, and is the lowest price we’ve seen so far during Prime Day. This is one of our top picks for exciting murder mystery games and can be played with up to 7 people.
Codenames
Codenames is one of the best picks for groups of 2-8 players, and made the cut in our overall best party board games list. If you’re looking for a good board game to break out at your next gathering, this may be the one.
There are plenty more games on sale still, whether you’re looking for family-friendly board games like Guess Who? or horror board games like Nemesis.
Jigsaw Puzzle Deals
This brand makes some of the coolest puzzles for adults I’ve come across on Amazon. It’s not as well-known as Ravensburger or some of the big names, but the quality definitely holds up—and the artwork is designed to be framed, not shoved back in the box. These are some of the best Prime Day puzzle deals going on right now.
These 1000-piece puzzles are basically ready-to-hang posters by the time you’re done. If you enjoy fandom-inspired art that actually looks good on a wall, this sale is worth a look.
Right now, only four designs are included, each tied to a popular franchise. The Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter options are easily my favorites—they have a bookish, collector’s feel that works way better than most licensed puzzle art.
Is Prime Day a Good Time to Buy Board Games?
Short answer: yes. If you’re looking to pick up a few new board games or card games, Prime Day is one of the best times of the year to do it, matched only by Black Friday in terms of overall discounts and variety.
Some of the deals available during Prime Day 2025 represent the lowest prices ever tracked on popular games, including modern classics, family favourites, and party staples. It’s unlikely they’ll drop any further later in the year, and by the time Black Friday rolls around, you’ll have missed a solid few months of potential game nights.
If you’re unsure whether a deal is truly worth it, use a site like CamelCamelCamel to check Amazon’s price history. It’s a quick way to confirm whether a discount is as impressive as it looks.
In a world filled with screens, board games offer a refreshingly analog way to spend time with friends and family, or just take a break solo. Whether you’re looking for something light and fast or deep and strategic, there’s something in this year’s sale worth grabbing. Just don’t wait too long, stock will disappear fast, and the best offers rarely hang around past the main Prime Day event.
