9 Gorgeous Board Game Sets to Buy at Michaels This Week

I admit I still don’t know how to play poker, and aesthetically, the chips and the cards never really stood out to me. But this Adler-designed poker set, with retro colors and funky shapes in a multihued acrylic carrying case, actually makes me want to learn.

Whether you’re lining them up and knocking them over or facing off against a friend, your playtime will get a bold makeover thanks to this set of acrylic dominoes emblazoned with a stripey blue and green ombre pattern that’s almost psychedelic.

If you want your dominos to have a more elegant flair, there’s also a translucent gold version of this set. The winner can pretend they’re gold bars!

If you’ve played Jenga before, you'll notice that this acrylic table tower game is essentially the same thing with a different name and sleeker look. (Plus, it comes in a cute carrying case with a handle.) Choose from translucent gold or a mix of transparent red, green, blue, and yellow, which kinda look like cubes of Jell-O when all stacked up.

A little competition is always fun, and this Mahjong dry erase scorecard kit will make sure you’re always prepared for a face-off, no matter where you are. The kit comes with two labeled scorecards and one dry erase marker with a built-in eraser.

You don’t necessarily need a special mat to play mah-jongg, but it certainly makes everything easier. And this mat, with its attractive floral design and vibrant pops of turquoise and magenta, will add a lovely ambience to the table. To take it on the go, roll it up and pop it in the included drawstring bag.

Whether you’re an old pro or just learning, this set has everything you need to learn and play a game of mah-jongg aside from a mat (which you can also get in the Adler collection, of course). The set of tiles, tile racks, dice, and instruction cards looks classic and cute at the same time.

A deck of cards is timeless, portable fun for the whole family. This set gives you two full decks of playing cards — one with a trippy red and white squiggle pattern and one with a circular blue pattern that looks almost like retro wallpaper — plus a clear acrylic case to keep them in.

Easily take your game on the go with this cute and brightly colored pink or blue pouch with a tassel zipper pull. And while this bag is meant to hold mah-jongg pieces and says “MAHJ” in big block letters, there’s no reason you couldn’t also use it as a makeup case or little travel pouch, too.
