<p>You’d be forgiven for thinking that physical tabletop gaming might have trouble surviving in this digital and ever-mobile age, but collectible card games and traditional board games are arguably more popular than ever. Excellent digital versions of household staples sit alongside entirely original offerings that serve up the full tabletop experience with added digital convenience. Online play can be a real lifesaver if you’re stuck indoors and can’t get to a friend’s house, and not needing to lug a weighty card collection around will do wonders for your posture, too.</p>
<p>Below we’ve assembled a selection of the best Switch card games, deck building games and traditional-style board games. While titans of the genre like <strong>Hearthstone</strong> and <strong>Magic: The Gathering</strong> aren’t currently available on Switch, the console boasts a varied selection; some pure card games, others hybrid RPG experiences or totally board-based, but they all have quality in common. Switch’s hybrid nature makes it an ideal home for CCGs and board games, with the option to play on your TV at home and carry on in handheld mode when you’re out and about.</p>
<p>If you’re into strategy, tactics and puzzles (and the absence of cards isn’t a deal-breaker), check out our picks of <a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/guides/feature-best-nintendo-switch-strategy-games">the best strategy games on Switch</a> and <a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/guides/feature-best-nintendo-switch-puzzle-games">the best puzzle games on Switch</a> for more brain-tickling digital experiences.</p>
<p>So, may we present — in a randomly shuffled order — the best deck builders, card and board games on Switch…</p>

<p>Compilation games like <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/clubhouse_games_51_worldwide_classics">Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics</a></strong> always have a variety of hits and misses depending on your own personal taste, but there’s a wide enough variety of board, card and action games here that you’re sure to find a number that will appeal to you. Texas Hold’em, Solitaire, Majong, Blackjack, Dominoes, erm… <em>bowling</em>; every one of the 51 games is presented with charm and warmth (terribly-written cutscenes aside) and there’s an enormous amount of content on offer, whether you plan on playing solo or with others. The perfect game for if you’re stuck indoors with the family? Quite possibly.</p>

<p>While this turn-based affair might look, move and feel just like a <em>real</em> board game, <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/armello">Armello</a></strong> is actually a completely original creation – and one that does more than simply doff its cap at the world of tabletop gaming. From the deep tactics of its living board game gameplay to the sheer charm of its world-building and animal character designs, it’s a quest filled with back-stabbing, political power plays and rampaging monsters that’s different each and every time you play. It’s at its absolute best when played in multiplayer, that human factor making for an even more unpredictable battle for the corrupted throne. You’d be doing yourself a disservice not to add this anthropomorphic tale to your wish list.</p>

<p>While utilising the ruleset of a more traditional CCG system might put off some players, the on-brand approach to turn-based combat in <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/thronebreaker_the_witcher_tales">Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales</a></strong> is still a positive addition to the world. Because with such an involved and intricately designed story – and such an interesting world to explore beyond the confines of Geralt – Thronebreaker offers the opportunity to lose yourself in the Continent like never before.</p>

<p><strong><strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/talisman_digital_edition">Talisman: Digital Edition</a></strong></strong> is a worthy, content-rich adaptation of a superb board game. It offers a vast multitude of unbalanced characters to choose from, hundreds upon hundreds of Adventure Cards with something new to see on every play, and spellcasting battles leading to pure salt from the eventual loser. It’s an absolute classic, and there’s also cross-platform online play in the Switch version, so you’ll be able to play with friends on Steam, Android and iOS. The only real caveats are the excess of DLC and – let’s face it – the fairly unbalanced gameplay of the original Talisman, but we love it.</p>

</div>
<p>Remarkably solid and satisfying, <a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/steamworld_quest_hand_of_gilgamech"><strong>SteamWorld Quest: Hand of Gilgamech</strong></a> is a card battler with an abundance of charm in its art, mechanics and writing. The presentation is slick, the dialogue’s witty and the gameplay’s addictive. It doesn’t have quite that <em>special</em> feeling that <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/steamworld_dig_2">SteamWorld Dig 2</a></strong> did, but it’s still a thoroughly enjoyable time in that universe. As long as you’re not expecting anything revolutionary, we recommend anybody who likes turn-based battling or who enjoyed any previous games in the series check SteamWorld Quest out.</p>

<p><strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/chess_ultra">Chess Ultra</a></strong> is a visual treat, while also soothing you with pleasant music as you engage in a tough match. There are plenty of options and variety for online and offline matches, with the former being particularly enjoyable if you’re able to get into a real-time contest. With Tournament play and some well constructed Challenges on board, along with Tutorials for newcomers, it ticks most boxes. It’s another checkmate for the Switch eShop.</p>

<p>Along with the expected multiplayer modes (ranked and casual battles), <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/faeria">Faeria</a></strong> delivers a compulsive, interesting and frankly enormously fun card battle experience. While not the easiest game to explain, it’s an impressive teaching tool for itself, but never feels overwrought or tiresome in said education. Of the card games we’ve enjoyed on Switch, Faeria is easily the highlight of the bunch and deserves to do well. It’s a full-featured package and stands out as an excellent card/board/strategy experience. If you want to play a fantasy card game on Switch, we’d recommend this one first.</p>

</div>
<p>Almost impossible to categorise yet utterly compelling as a result, <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/hand_of_fate_2">Hand of Fate 2</a></strong> is a unique RPG experience. Fusing the basic premise of a deck-building card game with the heart of an action-RPG, there’s just so much to enjoy here; the rewarding premise of its deck-building, the endless depth of its questing, the simple pleasure of its combat. This is a handheld port that’s practically indistinguishable from the version you can play elsewhere. Do yourself a favour and get this fantasy romp in your digital library right now.</p>

<p>In the highly competitive world of CCGs, PlayFusion has taken one of the biggest fantasy licences and seamlessly melded it with a card battling system that’s both easy to grasp and different enough to set itself apart from its contemporaries. With the addition of extra modes, including the Arena of Echoes and Realm Trials, and the option to scan in cards from your physical deck, there’s a deep and customisable experience in <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/warhammer_age_of_sigmar_champions">Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Champions</a></strong> that’s ideal for genre veterans. Joy-Con controls work well enough – enabling you to play in docked mode – but it’s at its best when played intimately in handheld mode with the touchscreen. The need for a constant internet connection will irk some, but for those that are willing to be tethered to Wi-Fi, PlayFusion has served up a fine rival to the likes of <strong>Hearthstone</strong>.</p>

</div>
<p><strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/slay_the_spire">Slay the Spire</a></strong> is an endlessly addictive roguelike card-battler that’s a perfect fit for the Switch; a beautifully balanced game that arrived on Nintendo’s system with all the benefits of an extended period of Early Access on PC. Its combination of ferocious battles, entertaining chance encounters and selection of three impressively different player characters make every run to the top a nerve-wracking and totally absorbing affair. Massively inventive sets of cards combine majestically into hugely destructive combos and attack and defence options fuse perfectly together, enabling players to use the information provided by the brilliantly transparent Intent system to strategise endlessly against the hordes of foul monstrosities that stand between themselves and victory. Sure, you’ll eventually see every enemy and chance encounter and yes, there are a few framerate niggles here and there, but overall this is one dungeon crawler that will live long in our system memories.</p>

<p>You’d be forgiven for thinking that physical tabletop gaming might have trouble surviving in this digital and ever-mobile age, but collectible card games and traditional board games are arguably more popular than ever. Excellent digital versions of household staples sit alongside entirely original offerings that serve up the full tabletop experience with added digital convenience. Online play can be a real lifesaver if you’re stuck indoors and can’t get to a friend’s house, and not needing to lug a weighty card collection around will do wonders for your posture, too.</p>
<p>Below we’ve assembled a selection of the best Switch card games, deck building games and traditional-style board games. While titans of the genre like <strong>Hearthstone</strong> and <strong>Magic: The Gathering</strong> aren’t currently available on Switch, the console boasts a varied selection; some pure card games, others hybrid RPG experiences or totally board-based, but they all have quality in common. Switch’s hybrid nature makes it an ideal home for CCGs and board games, with the option to play on your TV at home and carry on in handheld mode when you’re out and about.</p>
<p>If you’re into strategy, tactics and puzzles (and the absence of cards isn’t a deal-breaker), check out our picks of <a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/guides/feature-best-nintendo-switch-strategy-games">the best strategy games on Switch</a> and <a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/guides/feature-best-nintendo-switch-puzzle-games">the best puzzle games on Switch</a> for more brain-tickling digital experiences.</p>
<p>So, may we present — in a randomly shuffled order — the best deck builders, card and board games on Switch…</p>

<p>While this turn-based affair might look, move and feel just like a <em>real</em> board game, <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/armello">Armello</a></strong> is actually a completely original creation – and one that does more than simply doff its cap at the world of tabletop gaming. From the deep tactics of its living board game gameplay to the sheer charm of its world-building and animal character designs, it’s a quest filled with back-stabbing, political power plays and rampaging monsters that’s different each and every time you play. It’s at its absolute best when played in multiplayer, that human factor making for an even more unpredictable battle for the corrupted throne. You’d be doing yourself a disservice not to add this anthropomorphic tale to your wish list.</p>

<p>While utilising the ruleset of a more traditional CCG system might put off some players, the on-brand approach to turn-based combat in <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/thronebreaker_the_witcher_tales">Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales</a></strong> is still a positive addition to the world. Because with such an involved and intricately designed story – and such an interesting world to explore beyond the confines of Geralt – Thronebreaker offers the opportunity to lose yourself in the Continent like never before.</p>

<p><strong><strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/talisman_digital_edition">Talisman: Digital Edition</a></strong></strong> is a worthy, content-rich adaptation of a superb board game. It offers a vast multitude of unbalanced characters to choose from, hundreds upon hundreds of Adventure Cards with something new to see on every play, and spellcasting battles leading to pure salt from the eventual loser. It’s an absolute classic, and there’s also cross-platform online play in the Switch version, so you’ll be able to play with friends on Steam, Android and iOS. The only real caveats are the excess of DLC and – let’s face it – the fairly unbalanced gameplay of the original Talisman, but we love it.</p>

<p>Remarkably solid and satisfying, <a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/steamworld_quest_hand_of_gilgamech"><strong>SteamWorld Quest: Hand of Gilgamech</strong></a> is a card battler with an abundance of charm in its art, mechanics and writing. The presentation is slick, the dialogue’s witty and the gameplay’s addictive. It doesn’t have quite that <em>special</em> feeling that <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/steamworld_dig_2">SteamWorld Dig 2</a></strong> did, but it’s still a thoroughly enjoyable time in that universe. As long as you’re not expecting anything revolutionary, we recommend anybody who likes turn-based battling or who enjoyed any previous games in the series check SteamWorld Quest out.</p>

<p><strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/chess_ultra">Chess Ultra</a></strong> is a visual treat, while also soothing you with pleasant music as you engage in a tough match. There are plenty of options and variety for online and offline matches, with the former being particularly enjoyable if you’re able to get into a real-time contest. With Tournament play and some well constructed Challenges on board, along with Tutorials for newcomers, it ticks most boxes. It’s another checkmate for the Switch eShop.</p>

<p>Along with the expected multiplayer modes (ranked and casual battles), <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/faeria">Faeria</a></strong> delivers a compulsive, interesting and frankly enormously fun card battle experience. While not the easiest game to explain, it’s an impressive teaching tool for itself, but never feels overwrought or tiresome in said education. Of the card games we’ve enjoyed on Switch, Faeria is easily the highlight of the bunch and deserves to do well. It’s a full-featured package and stands out as an excellent card/board/strategy experience. If you want to play a fantasy card game on Switch, we’d recommend this one first.</p>

<p>Almost impossible to categorise yet utterly compelling as a result, <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/hand_of_fate_2">Hand of Fate 2</a></strong> is a unique RPG experience. Fusing the basic premise of a deck-building card game with the heart of an action-RPG, there’s just so much to enjoy here; the rewarding premise of its deck-building, the endless depth of its questing, the simple pleasure of its combat. This is a handheld port that’s practically indistinguishable from the version you can play elsewhere. Do yourself a favour and get this fantasy romp in your digital library right now.</p>

<p>In the highly competitive world of CCGs, PlayFusion has taken one of the biggest fantasy licences and seamlessly melded it with a card battling system that’s both easy to grasp and different enough to set itself apart from its contemporaries. With the addition of extra modes, including the Arena of Echoes and Realm Trials, and the option to scan in cards from your physical deck, there’s a deep and customisable experience in <strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/warhammer_age_of_sigmar_champions">Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Champions</a></strong> that’s ideal for genre veterans. Joy-Con controls work well enough – enabling you to play in docked mode – but it’s at its best when played intimately in handheld mode with the touchscreen. The need for a constant internet connection will irk some, but for those that are willing to be tethered to Wi-Fi, PlayFusion has served up a fine rival to the likes of <strong>Hearthstone</strong>.</p>

<p><strong><a href="https://www.nintendolife.com/games/switch-eshop/slay_the_spire">Slay the Spire</a></strong> is an endlessly addictive roguelike card-battler that’s a perfect fit for the Switch; a beautifully balanced game that arrived on Nintendo’s system with all the benefits of an extended period of Early Access on PC. Its combination of ferocious battles, entertaining chance encounters and selection of three impressively different player characters make every run to the top a nerve-wracking and totally absorbing affair. Massively inventive sets of cards combine majestically into hugely destructive combos and attack and defence options fuse perfectly together, enabling players to use the information provided by the brilliantly transparent Intent system to strategise endlessly against the hordes of foul monstrosities that stand between themselves and victory. Sure, you’ll eventually see every enemy and chance encounter and yes, there are a few framerate niggles here and there, but overall this is one dungeon crawler that will live long in our system memories.</p>
