Board Game Inventory

A free printable board game inventory — publisher, players and time, condition and completeness for every game you own, so one can be found without opening every box.

First page of the Board Game Inventory — Know what you actually own, what condition it is in and whether all the pieces are still in the box, without a shelf full of lids to check.

What this sheet is for

Know what you actually own, what condition it is in and whether all the pieces are still in the box, without a shelf full of lids to check.

Who it is for

Board game collectors, clubs and families with more games than they can keep straight from memory.

How to use it

  1. List one game per line, taking the edition and year off the box rather than from memory.
  2. Note players and playtime as printed, so the sheet also works as a quick picker.
  3. Record condition in your own words, and name anything missing in the completeness column rather than just ticking it.
  4. Write what you paid, and where the game is kept.

What is on the sheet

One page, top to bottom:

Printed under the title: Every board and tabletop game you own, catalogued once — publisher, players and time, condition and completeness — so a game can be found, lent or sold without opening every box on the shelf.

Write-on lines: Collector · Date · Shelf / room

Collection

Table, 16 rows: Title · Publisher / year · Players / time · Condition · Complete? · What you paid · Storage

Questions

Why is there no value column, only what you paid?

Because a game's resale value moves with print runs and demand and is a market opinion, not a fact a form can hold. What you paid is a fact; the Collection Inventory and Valuation Record has room for a professional or market valuation as well, where one exists.

How is this different from the Tabletop Game Session Log?

That sheet records a night's play — who played, the score, how long it took. This one records the collection itself — what you own, what condition it is in and whether all the pieces are still in the box.
