There's never a bad time to consider a board game deal - the market is a stacked one, so there are always price cuts to be had. However, these early Prime Day board game deals on some specific games are worthy of your attention, post haste! 

The deals we've picked out today are some very specific ones: some savings on board games of top video game titles. Yup, that is what is called playing to your strengths for us here on GamesRadar's hardware team. Anyway, these board game deals cover a few top-line famous series, and now is as good a chance to get them for less. Plus, some of them are literally some of the top board games for adults going, so the quality is real in these ones.

For starters, Horizon Zero Dawn: The Board Game, which is usually sold for almost $100, can now be picked up for just $73.50 at Amazon. I reviewed this for GamesRadar and can directly testify to its enjoyability and its respectfulness to the source material. It's a great game for Horizon fans.

If you are a follower of the Souls series, we've also found Amazon deals on Dark Souls: The Board Game, which is now down to $82.17 - its lowest price in about a month ($119.95 MSRP). Our two other picks are Elder Scrolls wargame Call to Arms, which has a modest discount but one that takes it to its lowest price since March - it's yours for $34.60 (was $45) - and a new Alien game, which doesn't have a price cut per see, but is an absolute bargain at just $29.99.

You can see more info about these deals below and some more of the latest prices on top board games below that.
