17 Crazily Cool Redesigned Classic Board Games

Many of us loved playing board games are children and some of us still play them as adult, but the design of popular board games like Scrabble, Chess and Monopoly haven’t changed very much in their lifespan – but wouldn’t it be cool if someone redesigned these iconic board games?

A board game is a game that involves counters or pieces moved or placed on a pre-marked surface or “board”, according to a set of rules. Games can be based on pure strategy, chance (e.g. rolling dice), or a mixture of the two, and usually have a goal that a player aims to achieve.

Early board games represented a battle between two armies, and most modern board games are still based on defeating opposing players in terms of counters, winning position, or accrual of points (often expressed as in-game currency).

Today we’ll be featuring some brilliant and crazily cool redesigned classic board games – many of them are available to buy! These restyled board games look amazing and are quite beautiful!
