Battlestar Galactica: The Board Game puts players in the role of one of ten of their favorite characters from the show. Each playable character has their own abilities and weaknesses, and must all work together in order for humanity to have any hope of survival. However, one or more players in every game secretly side with the Cylons. Players must attempt to expose the traitor while fuel shortages, food contaminations, and political unrest threatens to tear the fleet apart.

The Pursuit of Happiness is a game in which you take a character from birth and you live the life you always wanted. Using a worker-placement mechanism with time as your workers, you take on projects, you get jobs, you buy items, you establish relationships, you raise families. The possibilities are endless as you live the life you have always wanted. How much will you be able to achieve in just one lifetime?
Pursuit of Happiness is a perfect analog to real life. Your goal is Long Term Happiness. Gender & LGBT inclusive. It includes a mechanic for stress and Depression. Take on too much (job, significant others, projects /activities) and you get stressed... Money, interpersonal interactions, knowledge and creativity are all currency, and you will have to decide how to spend your time to accrue & spend them to live the happiest life you can!
Generally plays well for 12+. Mature / experienced game players younger than that have enjoyed the game.
*Disclaimer: There is a winner, but lauding over others that you are happier than them is a quick way to lose friends. This game is not full of Party Game Antics, is not terribly competitive, not heavy on co-op mechanics, but it does encourage friendly cooperation. I hope this helps you decide that this game is for you!
