There are some tiny tin-box style games, often not very deep but maybe there is something out there worth traveling around with?

Railroad Ink is a roll-and-write game in a tiny box (or multiple tiny boxes of different colors) and scales well from just one to six players.

This is somewhat hypothetical because I don't travel that often so I haven't actually traveled with all of these. But this is what I'd pack:

  • Next Station: London: great roll & write with a nice compact flap box. Works for solo.
  • Sea Salt & Paper: one of our current favorites, small box, easy to teach
  • Scout: ditto
  • Orchard: My small comfort solo
  • Some Buttonshy games. Maybe some Pack O Game ones too.

Easy to teach can be an important consideration in case you find some new people to play with.
