By Elaine Selna
Fans can’t wait any longer for season 4 of Stranger Things to hit Netflix on Friday, May 27. However, we’re still a few days away from the premiere date. In the meantime, we’ve collected 9 Stranger Things games, including classic board games like Dungeons & Dragons and iconic card games like UNO for fans to check out below.
1. Stranger Things Dungeons & Dragons Starter Set; $30
The roleplaying game Dungeons & Dragons has a pivotal place in the sci-fi series, with friends Will Byers, Mike Wheeler, Lucas Sinclair, and Dustin Henderson playing it in the first episode. This starter set is based on the show and includes an adventure book about the hunt for the Thessalhydra written by Mike.

2. Topps Cards: Stranger Things Value Box; $40
Back in the 1980s, Topps trading cards were all the rage, so it’s only fitting that the company would make a set based on a show set in that time. The collection features 100 retro cards based on season 1, including different parallel versions featuring the Upside Down, waffles, and Christmas lights. You’ll also receive 30 stickers based on characters and moments from that season.

3. Trivial Pursuit Netflix’s Stranger Things Back to The ‘80s Edition; Starting at $60
Test your knowledge of not only the show but also the ‘80s with this retro edition of the classic knowledge game Trivial Pursuit. There are over 1500 trivia questions inside the box based on six categories, including Stranger Things, movies, TV, music, famous people and events, tech and fun. When you get a question right, you’ll be able to move your piece along the board, which has a panel that flips to the Upside Down.

4. UNO FLIP! Stranger Things Card Game; $13
Though UNO is a classic card game that everyone knows and loves, this edition features a twist, or more like a flip, to enjoy. This version of UNO FLIP! uses the Upside Down as an element to the game. There are special versions of each character from season 4 on the card’s other side featuring different numbers and colors.

5. Stranger Things Ouija Board Game; $11
Many parts of the show deal with the supernatural like when Eleven uses her powers or Will connects with the Upside Down. Now you can bring an element of this into your own life with a Ouija board based on the show. Like how Will’s mom Joyce uses Christmas lights to talk with her son, you’ll use the same setup to communicate with the far beyond.

6. Stranger Things Screen Test Card Game; $25
If you’re planning on rewatching the show ahead of the season 4 premiere, you should check out the card game Screen Test. For seasons 1 and 2, you can use these cards to look out for things like specific phrases being called out or actions occurring in the show, like Jonathan taking a photo. When you get one right, you’ll get a point, and any you miss will be deducted from your total.

7. Monopoly Stranger Things Edition; $80
There’s been some recent controversy about the season 4 edition of Stranger Things Monopoly. Thankfully, though, this isn’t that one. This version is based on the first season, and you’re on a mission to help Will, who has gone missing. Instead of Chance and Community Chest cards, you’ll use Blinking Lights and Walkie-Talkie cards to advance. There are also ‘80s-inspired tokens you’ll use to move around the board.

8. Monopoly Game Stranger Things Collector’s Edition; Starting at $179
If you want to get really invested in the show, there’s a version of Monopoly that’s a collector’s edition based on the show’s first three seasons. It has 11 tokens for you to play with, like an Eggo waffle, a Dungeons & Dragons die, and a slingshot. You’ll be building Forts and Hideouts (which glow in the dark) instead of Homes and Hotels. Additionally, there are Upside Down cards which can give you special powers.

9. Stranger Things Eggo Card Game; $47
In season 1, Eleven famously steals some frozen Eggo waffles from a Hawkins grocery store, and subsequently, they become her signature snack. Now you can play a card game that uses this breakfast food. In the Eggo game, you’ll play as one of the show’s main characters with the objective to get rid of all your cards and escape the Upside Down before the Demogorgon attacks you.
