The Board Game You Will Dominate Based On Your Myers-Briggs® Type
Ahhh board games. I don’t care how advanced or interactive gaming systems have become, no competitive experience can match a good old-fashioned board game duel. I’ve been thinking for a while that certain games must appeal to different personality types. For example, I love strategy games but my ESTJ mother-in-law prefers word games. My ENTJ dad pretty much hates playing games (what a waste of time!) but when he was a teenager he won the World Record for playing Monopoly the longest (yep, that’s his picture below). Of course, his record was beaten several day later, but he enjoyed his 15 minutes of fame.
You could say that board-gaming is in my blood 😉 So I decided to take my gaming nerdiness to a new level and write an article about which game each personality type would be AWESOME at! Ready to find out? Let’s get started!

INTJ – Risk
I was really tempted to choose Chess for you INTJs. Sooo many books make comparisons between the INTJ way of thinking and the way a game of chess is played. Plus Bobby Fischer was an INTJ. But after speaking with a number of INTJs, I realized that many of you had pretty mixed feelings about the game itself. None of you had mixed feelings about Risk, however. This strategy game is the perfect vehicle for your long-term planning skills and focused, visionary way of thinking. Risk is a global domination game that puts your mastermind abilities to their best use. Your job is to take over the world by creating a clever military strategy, making alliances, and forming surprise attacks. If you haven’t played this yet, you haven’t lived, plain and simple.

ENTP – Fief: France 1429
Want to use that massive amount of strategic thinking you have stored away in your brain? Look no further than Fief: France 1429. Take on the role of a noble in 15th century France and fight to become the most powerful ruling force in the kingdom. This game will take advantage of your amazing intuitive abilities, your logical deductive skills, and your charm. You’ll have to work to make deals, negotiate, form secret pacts, and more. The complexity and intrigue of this game have been known to break friendships, but I believe you’re up for this ruthless yet entertaining job!

INTP – Stratego
Stratego requires a knack for strategy and complex analytical thinking (Ti). I know several INTPS who are hooked on this game, and now you can be one of them…although, if you’re anything like the INTPs I know you’ve probably been playing this game since childhood! The game board is your battlefield, and you have an army and six bombs at your disposal. You must protect your flag and capture your opponent’s flag. This will require clever deception, skillful strategizing, and a taste for variety. Sounds like the perfect Ti/Ne combo to me! No two games are alike, which means you can never. get. bored.

ENFJ – Pandemic
Join a team of medical specialists as you fight to save humanity from a scourge of virulent diseases in Pandemic. Work with your team to treat disease hotspots while finding cures for each of the four plagues before things get out of control. This suspenseful game will use all your abilities to inspire and bring out the best in your teammates. Pandemic is a great game for ENFJs because you don’t have to worry about making enemies of your friends. Cooperation and teamwork are key, plus your intuitive mind will make strategizing a breeze. This game allows you and every other player to showcase their unique abilities. A perfect game for your ever-friendly Fe-dominant, Ni-auxiliary mind!

INFJ – Mysterium
Feel like putting your oft-described “mystical” abilities to work? Look no further! Mysterium will use all your insightful, deductive abilities as you take on the role of a paranormal expert. Mysterium places you in a mansion after a horrible murder has been committed. The owner of the mansion was falsely accused and sentenced to prison where he died alone. He has now returned to the walls of his old home and needs you, plus a team of other experts, to put his soul to rest. Each night, you will receive a dream card featuring abstract, imaginative artwork. You must decipher the dream card and pay attention to symbolism, hidden meanings, and more. If this doesn’t sound like a game that is uniquely built for the INFJ, I don’t know what does!

INFP – Balderdash
Okay INFPs, we know you are all masters of language and creativity, right? I mean, come on. You’ve got authors like J.R.R. Tolkien, A.A. Milne, and Edgar Allan Poe in your group. I’m not jealous, noooo….well, maybe a little bit. Balderdash will harness your creative writing and imagination and, if my experience is any indicator, you’ll clobber all the other players…very sweetly, of course. Balderdash contains a box full of obscure words that hardly anyone has ever heard of. After one of the words is read out loud, each player tries to write their own made-up definitions of the word. Only one person will write the actual description of the word. You’ll gain points for guessing the right word and gain points when other players guess your word as the definition. This gives you the chance to flex your creative muscles as you write the most creative and unique definitions and trick your opponents with your writing mastery.

ENFP – Dixit
Join your friends in a group storytelling adventure with Dixit. Your imaginative Extraverted Intuition will come to life as you spontaneously come up with an expression, word, or gesture that represents the picture in your hand. Your opponents will select cards from their hands that they feel closely resemble the word or expression or sound you made. Now each player must guess which card is yours. You’ll take turns being the storyteller and the ‘guesser’. This game features dreamlike images that will delight the Ne-dominant mind. Your creative ability will come into play as you spontaneously act on the cards in your hand with off-the-cuff storytelling abilities. Sounds like the perfect adventure for your inspiring, engaging personality!

ESTP – The Resistance
Become a Resistance Operative or an Imperial Spy in this dystopian social deduction game. The Resistance will call on your masterful deductive logic and your smooth charm (thank you, tertiary Fe) to shatter imperial strength OR infiltrate the resistance ranks and sabotage their success. There’s lots of deception involved in this game, so if you don’t like looking at your friend and outright lying to his face this isn’t the game for you. But c’mon ESTPs, we know have more than enough charm and wit to pull this off without a hitch. Plus your deductive Ti abilities will help you to figure out a pathway to freedom or to your friends’ ultimate destruction.

ISTP – Stronghold
There has been a siege of the castle and it’s your job to either attack or defend! Stronghold will utilize all your tactical thinking and sensing abilities as you quickly have to discern how to build war machines, equip soldiers, build cannons, and do whatever you can to either hold or destroy the castle for as long as possible. Lots of other types would get stressed during this suspenseful, violent game, but with your ability to think swiftly in a crisis you are built for this job. Your personality type contains some of the swiftest, fiercest warriors of all time. As David Keirsey says, ISTPs “are fearless in their play, risking themselves again and again.” Good luck finding an opponent who is worthy of your quick-thinking tactical abilities!

ISFPs, it’s your turn to take the spotlight in Scribblish. Don’t worry, you don’t have to perform in front of a crowd! You just have to show us all your incredibly creative artsy abilities. ISFPs are often called “The Artists” or “The Composers” and it’s not hard to see why with people like David Bowie, Paul Gauguin, and Mozart in your ranks.

ESTJ – Pay Day
As one of the highest-earning personality types, you can showcase your financial planning skills in Pay Day. You’ve got 31 days to handle various bills and expenses while making deals on properties to earn money. At the end of the game, the player with the most money wins, and since you and ENTJs are neck-in-neck the highest earners of all, this game should be yours to dominate (unless, of course, you’re playing with an ENTJ..which I would like to watch). This game will showcase your practical economic skills and will give you a chance to socialize with your friends and family. We know you’ve got this!

Oh my gosh this is the most wonderful post. I’m gonna share this with all my MBTI/board game obsessed friends. My brother is an INTJ and he in fact beats us at Risk almost every time haha, as well as chess and Catan. And Trivial Pursuit definitely sounds fun for me as an ISTJ haha. Dixit, Pandemic, We Didn’t Playtest This At All, Balderdash, Life, and Stratego are other family favorites. This just makes me so happy. 😀
I’m so glad you enjoyed this post!! It’s so fun to “meet” other board game aficionados:) I love Catan too! That’s another classic!
great post!
I’m an INTJ and I swear that as I read the title of the post I though “Ok, it’s going to say “chess”. I don’t really LOVE chess, it’s ok, but it isn’t “colourful” enough to me, unlike RISK. And boom! You’ve chosen Risk, what a pleasure to read it. I used to play Risk for ENTIRE NIGHTS at University with the “official nerds” of my residence, this is, by far, my favourite board game (And all the versions, specially LOTR Risk). Apart from that, I also love “Cluedo”, and I have to admit that I’m also a huge Trivial fan (Don’t know if this is shared by other INTJs). Thank you for this post! It made me laugh.
I will have to try Cluedo! So glad you agreed with the post! I love Risk as well (I’m an INFJ) and I miss playing it more often! 🙂
We enjoy word games like Scrabble and Bananagrams and get bored waiting our turns with Trivial Pursuit. Not only that, most of us had particular interests and particular dislikes. eg Pop music and sport bores me silly but I have some chance with literature.
We improved on the rules for Scrabble by having two blanks each at the start. They could be swapped with whichever letter they stood for but only during a turn.( If you are wondering how we managed to acquire extra taws, the answer is that with convents closing down, there were plenty of Scrabble sets gathering dust in main convents.) This means the game can move along faster with the same challenges along the way. Never play Scrabble with those who don’t agree with even the basic exchange rule. It’s not worth the time because they are the very ones who think it acceptable to spend 45 minutes going through the dictionary while you sit there waiting.
I certainly must admit to liking the wordplay game.it’s typically something i’m good at.Though this Balderdash game puts a twist on wordplay lol.
Is Balderdash what we call the Dictionary Game? In our version, we each find our own word in the dictionary for our turn and everyone, including the one who knows the answer, makes up as many definitions as they can. The leader reads each one out, all the time trying to keep a straight face, then the rest have to say which one they think is the correct answer.You could keep score if you like, but usually we’re happy not to worry because we want to continue having fun. keep going
I’m an ENFJ, so I’m so happy about this selection, my dad got Pandemic for Christmas so now I really want to play it.
Although I’m an INTP, during the two years of me attending to board games meetings where we played Risk every two weeks (seriously, how can you not love this game), I’ve never lost. For a pretty long time in my life I’ve been categorized as an INTJ (and the description suited me well, too), so I guess maybe that’s why I dominated this game – and still do.
I think I’m going to try out Stratego… Never heard of it, but sounds interesting!
Hi! I think INTPs would be good at nearly any strategy game so it’s no surprise that you won Risk so much! I think many types can be good at these games, I just tried to figure out which ones might be especially suited to specific types:) I hope you like Stratego!!
Finally understand why I loved RISK from young…haha! Great Post!
I’m an ESFJ and I love The Game of Life! I used to play it all the time as a kid!
Wow thank you for this post Susan, I’ve seen similar ones before; but this this is definitely the best one! So many boardgames to try now…
I think this is spot on, with some games overlapping though with several types; with enneagram and tritypes playing a role too.
I’m an INFP and found the INFP, INFJ, ENFP and INFJ game suggestions the most interesting. The INFJ game suggestion sounded even more exciting than the INFP one, but that’s probably because of my 4w5 enneagram type…Mystery, symbolism, dreams…I’m in!
I’ve also always tended to like strategy and mystery solving games like Cluedo, Mahjong and Sid Meier’s Civilisation.
My 6w5 ISFJ friend also loves Cluedo. Propably the shared w5 explains this.
As for the Game of Life, while I understand your ESFJ typing for that one, I can also see many XNFP and ISFP types liking it…as a way to explore alternative lifestyles/life choices. Simulation games overall come across as XNFP based.
BTW Susan Storm, have you looked into the Enneagram personality typing system as well? I highly recommend it. If so, do you know your type? From your photograph, you come across as a 3w4 with a 7 fix. Is my guess correct? (Sorry, but I really like mystery/guessing games ;p )
~~ A 4w5 INFP
Great post! I am an ENTP and might have to try Fief- I’ve never heard of it! I think Clue is the board game I’m best at playing. Thanks for writing!
Thanks for reading! Let me know if you like it! I love Clue 🙂
I had no idea this many board games even existed – some of these look really interesting. Funnily, the few that seem most intriguing to me are those chosen for ENTP (me), INFJ (my strange husband), ENFP (my kooky mom) and ENTJ (which is probably an improvement on the ENTP because they show up on time and don’t leave their stuff lying all over the place).
I actually used to have Trivial Pursuit, and was really good at it (ENTP addiction to general knowledge aka random facts about things no-one else thinks about?), and Monopoly, which I was a total maniac at. Eventually absolutely No-One wanted to play Monopoly with me because I kept on winning and was creepily unafraid of playing for As Long As It Takes (ENTP random bursts of obsession?).
Anyway, at some point in my childhood my parents got rid of my games against my will, so no more world domination for me I guess.
Oh well, look to the future. Does anyone here like Scrabble or Rummikub? My (strange) husband recently unearthed these two games at my funny granddad’s house, and after a few fun nights of sitting up until 2am playing, I have come to the definite conclusion that I hate them both.
I, as an INTJ, excel in strategic games. I actually have never participated in a game of Risk, however, I am intrigued and will look into that. I have never lost a game of Monopoly. I win every game of every strand and every variation of Monopoly. I beat my opponents so mercilessly that no one will play with me any more. For a while, I would actually start the game with no cash, while my opponents had the allotted amount. I still won. Every time. I also recently became intrigued with Scrabble, unearthed from my sister’s “more-trash-that-valuables closet”. With a naturally large vocabulary, I win most of the time. I also enjoy the Game of Life, which is the ‘compromise’ my past Monopoly opponents have invented. I win 75% of the time, even though it’s definitely not my forte. Does anyone else just win the games, like, even if the don’t like the game?
I’m kinda a badass at risk, but clue was always a lay down ( easy win) , fun time so mysterium may have a place… I have mad skills with cards ( poker/holdem ) and spotting some of the best played bluffs..And dice, oh goodness, I usually roll exactly what I need.. so it’s an advantage with monopoly, and keeps my title hold , with yahtzee.. Problem is, the whole social part.. it wears me out, so I’m only good for a few hours, or one game.. that often seems to piss off the one I’ve just dominated, even further.. especially the ones whose money I take with me, even I feel bad, but I still am happy with the win…
play em like you got em, when you just know they dont..
Oh and we can’t forget the thrill of a well play / found word… scrabble/boggle… I have those on the phone for time wasting , which I’m also good at…
=)
Infj
INTJ- Twilight Struggle, ENTP- DIplomacy, I see INTP as being Go players.
Lol, I’m happy to see that I’m not the only winning-obsessed player out there. Maybe we should all play Monopoly, winners vs winners?! I wonder how long that would take. >d<
@Maggie Balthrop, I don't know how your vocabulary helps you at Scrabble, because it never helps me. I always have awesome words (or large portions of a word) on my letter rack, but no place to put them on the board (such as "Jubilatio_", with nothing but tiny open spaces. I mean, REALLY). So I normally end up playing every two-letter word known to man, while the real stars die in private, and then regardless of who wins, it's just not fun.
Have a look at Paperback by Tim Fowers.
I tested as an ISFP and I don’t like word games. I like strategy games like Risk, Stratego and Connect 4. I also like pictionary.
And I’m an INTJ and I hate strategy games and love word games. I winced at seeing Risk as the quintessential INTJ game. But at least it wasn’t chess.
Replace LIFE with the far superior Pursuit of Happiness.
I will look into it! Haven’t played that one, so thank you for the suggestion! 🙂
My favorite game ever is Dominion.
I have tested as INTP or INFP at different times. I also love Balderdash.
I like Stratego, but I don’t think it has nearly the replayability you suggest. You figure out what is usually the best kind of placements for your flag and pieces and do something like that every time, just making tweaks. I propose Dominion should be the game for INTPs. Dominion really is different every game.
Also, after reading this, I really want to try Mysterium.
Dominion is awesome. So is Seven Wonders, if you can figure out how to play it.
INTJ.
Glad you skipped Chess. I never really liked it, but not because it lacks depth, but because it is a “practice thing”. Studying openings I would have thought more to be an INTP thing, not intuition.
Main reason that I dislike chess is how excluding it is. You have to be deep in the community to learn from games and if you are that good, you cannot play against anyone outside that group as it will never really be exiting.
I liked Risk when I was a teen, but since then the options have just gotten much better.
There are litterally hundreds of “euro” games that offer the ability to strategize and use premonition and intuition to win, without the sloppy theme of Risk.
I like my games without hidden information though. If there is such, it gives an unfair advantage to players to knows the game. You cannot account for hidden information unless you know what it could be. I guess my fairness trait rules there.
My family loves to play all kinds of games and sports for different reasons. While serving at a Boys and Girls Club as a teacher for a College Prep Workshop, I turned it into a classroom-sized game of Life! I love most word, strategy, and card games and hate games of chance. Only one person has ever beat me at a word game (Scrabble). I don’t know his type, but I do know that he’s an ex. lol
This is awesome! I’m an INFP and I LOVE Pandemic, Mysterium and Dixit! I’m actually not a huge fan of Balderdash. I like it in theory but with 2 ENFP best friends I feel inferior… I need more time!!! I’m not as quick as them, I think about it too long and am too indecisive!
What type excels at Scattergories I wonder? I enjoy playing with my ENFPs because if we come up with something that isn’t real but have a convincing enough explanation of what it is, we give you credit for it! Kitchen gadget starting with M? Melon Buffer.
Oooh my ISFJ mother is amazing at Scrabble and plays all the time. And a good friend of mine who has been hard to type in the past but we have fairly confidently finally settled on being ESFJ LOVES the Game of Life! For the first 10 years we were friends, any time we hung out together outside of school, we HAD to play the game!!! Too funny! Spot on!
Oh so you’re an INFJ who loves board games. I get the feeling that you’re going to love Board James series. May want to watch it 😛
Yup, a random guy with a random comments😂😂
I am an INTJ and I find “Risk” to be far too boring. The game is way too simple. While it is a strategic game, due to its lack of complexity it doesn’t really allow an INTJ to adapt the game to their own personal playing style. As such, I would say that “Magic: The Gathering” is the quintessential INTJ game. MtG is all about strategy with little luck involved (a must for an INTJ to stay interested in a game). It’s a card game that lets you build your own deck from the cards you choose to buy (which means the only real down side is that the game can get expensive rather quickly, but definitely worth it in my book) that are based around five possible colors that you can combine any way you like, and each color has a theme/strategy it generally caters to. Furthermore, there is a structure to each turn and lots of rules, but what makes it incredibly enjoyable to an INTJ is that every card has the potential to make an exception to any of the rules, which means you can do really fun, broken things with the right combination of cards. Lastly, the refinement process of building solid decks that have very few if any weaknesses is done mostly through trial and error and making incremental changes over time, with immediate and noticeable rewards almost every time you play the improved deck, which is very rewarding to an INTJ. It requires patience and the sheer will to continue improving, two things that INTJs in particular excel at.
Bloody hell! I agree with your reasoning, but I can guarantee you less than 10% of people that have seen your response have actually read the whole thing…..
My INTJ & ISTP-ish teen sons have taken to Warhammer 40k the last few months. I test as INTP and generally prefer the faster, smaller strategy games so Stratego sounds right. I like shorter iterations so I can learn and improve in each go. I push my kids to play smaller, faster rather than slow complicated rules. MTG, Risk, Monopoly, chess take too long and I lose patience.
I’m an INTJ and find Risk to be way too long and boring. But, that’s just ME. I feel the same way about Monopoly. Chess is okay but, if you’re playing with someone who takes forever to make a move, it can also be too long and boring.
Being as how we love reading and learning about just about everything, and delve into what we learn, making us the Jack’s and Jane’s of all trades, I’ve personally always loved and ruled at any kind of Trivia game. But, I also love Backgammon, and any other game that requires strategy, more than luck.
I had never played dominoes, nor was ever interested in what to me appeared to be a game that old people play, until my ex and I began playing with his dad and wife, after we were married. Who’d have known that dominoes is a game of strategy? Turned out that it was actually quite a lot of fun.
I was always paired up with his dad, and I would quickly figure out who had which dominoes. Then, I would save the one best domino I had to play, when it was either of our turns, for winning the game every single time. But, because they weren’t accustomed to my kind of strategy, and were all trying to figure out who had that one domino, including my ex father in law, they used to get so frustrated with me, especially his dad. LOL.
Life is pretty bland for any board gamer. I disagree with the INTJ, too, but Magic: The Gathering is no better; though I know it’s a personal preference of the one commenting. I know an INTJ who hates card games, including that one. The closest he got to liking one was Evolution. Yes, he loves military strategy, but there are a wealth of strategy board games that are far more in depth and engaging than Risk. It’s kind of like expecting someone to love Settlers of Catan just because they are a board gamer.
I was excited to see this unique article title in my email, as it is a pretty rare topic. I was surprised to see, though, that there weren’t more “hardcore” games used on here that you would see at board gaming groups, but I understand not everyone who enjoys board games are a heavy enough gamer to know them. I just found most of these very old and board games have evolved considerably since then. It’s not that people can’t enjoy these older games, but since the newer ones are much more diverse and in depth, they would give a far better window of personality preference for those who enjoy board gaming.
Some popular games that would have been cool to see would have been Eclipse, Suburbia (or Castles of Mad King Ludwig), Agricola (or Caverna), Archipelago, Roborally, Nuns on The Run, Dimension, Superfight, Shogun, Blueprints, Carcassonne, Timeline, Bananagrams, 8 Minute Empire, Hive, or Codenames, to name just a few. I guess you want to make it relatable for those who don’t know board games well. No offence is meant. The game geek in me was just hoping to get a deeper look into personalities of those with game preferences or help find better games for those whose personalities I already know. 😉
I can tell that most type interested in board games are INTJs.
-Just a guess…
I am an INFP and you were right on for me because I already own Balderdash! I love Apples to Apples too. But normally board games or card games don’t interest me.
Sorry, I’m late to the party… now I’m wanting to prove everyone wrong, regarding earning potential, and run circles around all the extroverted types (not in a bad way—extroverts are awesome) and make much more than highest-earning extroverts in whatever field I end up (leaning toward accounting), but that’s still a bit in the future for me.
Anyway, I like the idea of Trivial Pursuit being an ISTJ game.
