About boysloy

Last Updated: November 7, 2026

Make space for a good game.

Games to share, puzzles to work through

boysloy brings together tabletop games and hands-on puzzles: familiar boards such as chess, checkers, backgammon and mancala; peg, tile and counting games; and wooden challenges built around packing, interlocking pieces or a sequence of moves. The connection is simple: each gives you something concrete to set on the table and work through.

Choose by how you want to play

A shared game and a solo puzzle ask different things of an evening. We organize our range around those choices so you can compare a board for playing together with a puzzle to revisit at your own pace. A compact set, a larger board and a puzzle with loose components also need different amounts of table and storage space.

Useful details before a purchase

What we look at

Our selection considers the type of play, board or puzzle format, stated dimensions, included pieces and storage arrangement. On each listing, check the exact model and components, whether a measurement describes the open board or the stored set, and any supplied player, instruction or safety information. We do not treat a photograph of a prop or an answer card as a promise that it is included.

No invented difficulty or age claims

A wooden puzzle is not automatically easy, suitable for a particular age or supplied with a solution. We use guidance for the exact item rather than assigning an age, difficulty score or benefit that has not been established. Our tabletop game and puzzle buying guide explains the comparisons that make a choice easier.
