Simultaneous action selection board games
- over 870 games available
- 2–8 players
- 61 min average playtime
- 11+ years
With simultaneous action selection everyone picks a move at the same time, usually with a face-down card, then reveals together: no turns, no waiting, and the game becomes an exercise in prediction. What will the others do? Should I anticipate or react? It keeps every player engaged, and it suits people who find downtime dull and enjoy reading their opponents.
The average count is 2 to 8 players, sessions run about an hour and the suggested age is 11; it scales well to large groups because turns do not get longer. Sushi Go! is the 15-minute draft from age 8; Bring Your Own Book (EDIZIONE INGLESE) is the party game for up to 8; Race for the Galaxy (EDIZIONE INGLESE) and Heat: Pedal to the Metal are one-hour games; Spirit Island (Edizione Italiana) uses the same idea in a two-hour cooperative.
uplay.it stocks over 870 simultaneous action selection games from publishers such as Fantasy Flight Games and WizKids Games, in Italian and other languages, shipped from Italy.
