Best Deals Today: Gloomhaven, Gaming Chairs, Portable SSDs, And More

Friday is here, and with it a slew of new deals are available, including a near-Black Friday level deal on board game Gloomhaven. The acclaimed (and literally huge) strategy game is down to $87 at Amazon today, and we expect the price may creep back up at any time. If you’re doing any traveling this summer, we’re also seeing some great deals for on-the-go tech, including a pair of true wireless earbuds for just $28, the Razer Kishi mobile controllers for up to $15 off for iPhone and Android, and a 500GB portable SSD from SanDisk for $85. Of course, some of the best deals from earlier this week are sticking around as well, including discounts on PlayStation exclusives like The Last of Us Part 2, recent Switch releases like Monster Hunter Rise for $10 off, and Titanfall 2: Ultimate Edition for $3–yes, really. Keep on scrolling for more of today’s best deals, and we’ll be back on Monday to track the latest, greatest markdowns across gaming, tech, and entertainment.

Gloomhaven

$87.63 (was $140)

The massive co-op tactical board game Gloomhaven is down to a fantastic price today at Amazon, and we expect that price will go back up anytime. At $87.63, it’s only a couple of bucks higher than its Black Friday price last year.

Gloomhaven is widely regarded as one of the best board games ever; years after its release, it still ranks as the No. 1 highest rated board game on BoardGameGeek (and ranks on our own list of the best board games as well). Designed for one to four players, Gloomhaven is a campaign-based dungeon-crawling game that unfolds in a legacy format, meaning you’ll need to play it over the course of many sessions, with the story branching based on your decisions. If you’re looking for a new board game to dive into in 2021, we can’t recommend Gloomhaven more, though don’t be surprised by how much the Amazon box weighs–this board game is quite large and weighs a whopping 20 pounds.
