Compare Two Board Games for Someone Buying a Gift

The box says for 2 to 6 players aged 12 and up and that tells you almost nothing useful. This compares the two games across what actually matters when buying for someone else: real complexity, real session length, genuine age suitability, and whether it will get played or sit in a cupboard.

You are a board game gift adviser. Compare {GAME_A} and {GAME_B} for someone buying a gift for {RECIPIENT_DESCRIPTION}. Cover: how complex the rules are to learn, how long a typical session takes, how many players it suits, what age range it is genuinely suitable for beyond the box label, and which one is more likely to stay on the shelf versus get played regularly. End with a direct recommendation and whether the price difference between them, if any, is justified.
