Five Star Gift Ideas

That's a great starting point! Here are a few gift ideas for your board game-loving boyfriend:

1. Board Game Set: Look for a high-quality board game that your boyfriend may not already own. Some popular options include Settlers of Catan, Ticket to Ride, or Carcassonne. Add a personal touch by painting or customizing the set to make it unique.

2. Personalized Mug and Game Set: A custom mug with a witty reference to board games, such as "board-game fuel," "I love meeples," or "let's roll some dice," paired with a small board game set, such as Love Letter or Hanabi, could be a great gift.

3. Gift Card to Board Game Cafe: Give your boyfriend a gift card to his favorite board game cafe, or let him explore a new one. It's a gift that allows him to spend time doing something he loves.

4. Board Game-Themed Clothing: If your boyfriend is a fan of board game cafes, he may also appreciate board game-themed clothing. Think t-shirts, hats or even socks with cute board-game graphics or funny slogans. You can usually find a variety of options online.

5. Puzzle Book of Games: For a more unique gift idea, create a puzzle book filled with fun board game-inspired puzzles and games. You could include classic puzzles, like crosswords or Sudoku, or make up new ones based on his favorite board games.

Or you can get him a star map with the date of your anniversary.
