Amazon has dropped its first early Black Friday sale on board games this week with a ‘buy 2, save 50% on 1’ promotion. The sale includes a number of tabletop offerings, plushies, and backpacks eligible for those extra savings. But the overall most interesting deal here is on the official Legend of Zelda chess set.
This chess set was one of the most popular items during Prime Day 2026 when Amazon shaved only a few dollars off the price, and this deal is arguably better than back then if you plan on buying multiple things at once. If you’re looking for a unique Legend of Zelda gift to buy, this is one of IGN’s top recommendations.
Amazon’s BOGO promotions are pretty straightforward, even if the pricing details and inclusions are subject to change. To take full advantage of the sale, you’ll just need to add two eligible items to your cart and Amazon will automatically discount the least expensive one by 50% at checkout. So you’ll save the most possible money if you buy two of the same item or two similarly priced items. You can check out the full list of what’s included in the sale at Amazon’s dedicated promotional page.
More From the Sale
The “buy one, get one half off” sale isn’t exactly bursting with options, but there are some good things in here. On the tabletop side, there’s The Fellowship of the Ring: Trick Taking game. We gave it a solid 8 out of 10 in our review, praising the art and family-friendly gameplay. It’s simply one of the best Lord of the Rings board games you can buy right now.
If you’re looking for something a little closer in price to the Legend of Zelda chess set, you can also check out the Bulbasaur Sleeping plush. It’s made by the same company that does Squishmallows, which is arguably the best Pokémon plushie brand on the market right now. There’s also the One Piece version of Monopoly included, which is almost exactly the same price as the chess set.
