The purpose of this article is to give some insight into the cultural determinants of games based on the cultural dimensions theory by Geert Hofstede and on certain national preferences regarding board games. By means of statistical description, average values and standard deviations of board game ratings have been analysed across different countries and this set of data has been compared to cultural dimensions theory indicators. Preliminary results suggest that there can be a link between the long term orientation culture index and the higher ratings of games that put an emphasis on strategy rather than tactics. However, due to imperfections of the available data no definitive link could have been established.
