Great Board Games for 5+ Players (No Party Games) | High Player Count Games

We've seen the question a lot recently - what are some good games that you can play with MORE than 4 Players - but no party games! So, we came up with 13 games from our personal collection that play with at least 5 players - and we didn't cheat and include a bunch of roll and writes either!

Most board games play up to 4 players, for good reason. The more players, the longer the game takes, the more downtime there is between turns, 4 players is probably much more common that 5 players so adding more players adds more cost for components a player count that won't be used that much. But, we've seen the question over and over again - what are some good games for more than 4 players? So we put together a list that consists of some light games, some medium games, some fun family games, and some more strategic games - but there's no party games and no roll and writes, and only one of the games featured in this video requires an expansion to be able to play at that higher player count.
