Dune: A Game of Conquest and Diplomacy
Dune: A Game of Conquest and Diplomacy is a board game from Gale Force Nine that puts you in the shoes of young Paul Atreides (or if you prefer, a Harkonnen) in a contest to win control of the most important planet in the galaxy: Dune, Arrakis, a desert planet.

Suitable for 2 to 4 players ages 12 and up, this game puts you in the science fiction classic by author Frank Herbert (and the 2021 film remake) to play as one of four different factions: House Atreides (yay!), House Harkonnen (boo!), the Fremen (yay!) and the Imperium (boo!). Your goal: Win control of Arrakis and its valuable Spice. The average game takes from 30 to 60 minutes.

The game features player tokens of recognizable characters like The Mandalorian (of course), Ahsoka Tano, Boba Fett and Bo-Katan, and each of them has their own special abilities and a character card.
Grogu, AKA Baby Yoda, does make an appearance on the board, and you'll have to protect him (and use his sweet Force skills) of you land on his spot. Finally, the Empire won't sit quietly while you play with your friends, so you'll have watch out for Stormtrooper, Dark Trooper and Moff Gideon enemies to make sure they don't get Grogu. May the Force be with you always!
Terraforming Mars board game
Terraforming Mars, which is 23% off at Amazon, asks players to both work together (yet also compete) to build a sustainable habitat on Mars for humanity to thrive.

Space Park Strategy Game
Space Park Strategy Game is on sale right now at Amazon for $22.49. Unlike most board games, which last several hours, this one is only 20 to 30 minutes and easier to squeeze into a busy day or even during a lunch break. You and your teenagers can gather space crystals, cool badges and other things at space parks. It's no surprise that space parks are so popular in this game, as NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory has created exploratory space posters based on Depression-era U.S. national park art, too.
Cosmic Encounter
Comic Encounter is an exciting game designed for 3-5 players and is now 7% off. The aim is to successfully expand your colonies and wipe out your opponents, failing to do so will leave you in the deep abyss of space. Variation is another big plus point as no two games ever end up being the same.

Beyond The Sun is 24% off and is a similar concept (although different) to Terraforming Mars, which appears earlier in this guide. Players must look beyond the sun for interstellar colonization to ensure humankind's survival. Research technologies, improve economies and colonize systems to complete the game and find man a new home.
