Inside this ranking: 15 headline-making yachts, following the source's published order and reported estimates. Prices can change and should be read as editorial estimates rather than live appraisals.

• Catan — Catan. Catan remains a practical gateway because every turn creates public information: roads reveal plans, settlements compete for intersections, and trades expose what players need.
• Ticket to Ride — Ticket to Ride. Collect colored sets, claim rail connections, and complete hidden routes: the rules are simple enough to teach quickly, but shared geography produces meaningful interference.
• Carcassonne — Carcassonne. Each tile extends a shared landscape, while limited followers create the real strategic pressure.
• Pandemic — Pandemic. Pandemic makes cooperation concrete: players share a world map, exchange information openly, and combine specialized roles to contain outbreaks while researching cures.
