Famus flute players?

Unfortunately, there are many games that can be played with two players but some of the game play is lost without having a third or fourth. There are, however, several games that have been designed for only two players or that play just as well with a pair of players as they do with several players. Here are five games that can be enjoyed by just two people.

Jaipur is a game for only two players that takes less than 30 minutes. Using only cards and chips, players vie to be the Maharaja's top trader by swapping six different types of goods as well as camels. During the three rounds, players try to collect as many sets of goods cards as they can while only keeping seven cards in their hand at a time.

When you're ready to trade, you discard set of matching cards in for coins. Trading in three or more cards of one type of good, earns a player bonus coins. At the end of the round players tally the value of their coins to determine the winner.

Whichever player wins two out of three rounds wins the game. Played on a giant map, Ticket to Ride is a train themed game where players are trying to connect cities by placing their trains along tracks. Each player selects tickets with different point values.

If they are able to connect the cities on their tickets, they receive that number of points at the end of the game.
