There are several factors that can explain the rise of board games in an era where digital technology is taking over more aspects of our lives. As stated in https://www.eastmojo.com/em-buzz/2025/02/18/reverse-gaming-evolution-when-digital-natives-rediscover-physical-board-games/, one of the biggest factors is that people are starting to look for ways to escape digital overload. We live in a world where constant notifications, social media, video games, and other forms of digital content can overwhelm our attention. There’s too much information, too much interaction in the digital space, and that’s where board games come in. When we sit down with friends and play board games, we take a break from the screen, from all those notifications, and are transported into a space of real communication and interaction. No, of course, you could say that the same thing happens when we play online games with friends, but there is one important difference: in board games, there is no secondary plan in the form of the same notifications on social networks, you do not need to be distracted by messages in messengers or Skype. This is the moment when we are all immersed in the same process and are in the same space, making the game a truly collective experience. And in digital games, this is not possible, even if you play with friends.

Interesting thoughts, indeed! But I think another aspect is important - it's a return to board games as a way to create a more "meditative" space for yourself. In a world where everything is accelerating and changing, people are starting to look for ways to slow down time, to concentrate on one thing that does not require constant attention to the screen. For example, I myself became interested in board games, because it creates an atmosphere of coziness, even if you are not playing with friends. I have a couple of collectible games that I just love to take apart and delve into. And it's not only about fun, but also about mindfulness, that is, you do not need to worry about someone writing to you in the chat or something urgent appearing on the Internet.
