Games like Viceroy

Looking for games like Viceroy? It's a strategy game with real decisions on every turn — built on the chase to complete the right combinations and spatial puzzles that grow as each new piece lands. This page rounds up 12 of the closest alternatives, scored on mechanical overlap with the original (45%), complexity match (35%), and player-count fit (20%), then weighted by BoardGameGeek community ratings so every pick is one players genuinely rate.
