Board Games and the Like

[Macawmoses]

I played a plethora of games today, and it was fun. On my list was Balderdash, Scrabble, Things, and of course, Monopoly.

It is great fun to play games as such with friends and family, and I wanted to know what your personal favorites are? Mine is a tie between Clue and Balderdash.

Also, are you asking for any board games for Christmas/etc? I am asking for Scrabble, my old set is nearly destroyed.

Discuss the wonders of board games.

my favorite is don't whiz on the electric fence

eels and escalators is pretty cool too though

[.:DL:.]

I'd have to say Eels and Escalators.  It's just that fun.  ;D

[JrDude]

You people and your Spongebob & Ren & Stimpy.

My favorite is probably Life or Monopoly.

Monopoly is always a classic, so that's my choice. Clue comes in second, though.

Definitely Monopoly, could be because I always win, but wither way it's fun. And last year(or the year before) I got a Nintendo Monopoly, haven't gotten to playing it because one of my friends hates Monopoly. It's because he sucks at it.

Risk is pretty good too, I've haven't played it enough to know how good I am, and Scrabble. I suck at that though, still fun.

Mine? Risk or Monopoly.

I like the games where you could play for 8 hours and everybody is still playing.

"Plethora." lol

Anyways, I'm so jealous of those bastards that got to play board games with you.

I'm going to have to say Monopoly. It's pretty fun.
My second would be The Simpsons Clue. Smithers has a maid, lol.

I have buckets full of board games down in my basement. I should get everyone in my family to play them sometime...

[Jono2]

Catan beats all other board games.

period.

candy land brings back awful repressed memories

I'm a Stratego guy myself.

Also, question. Does anybody know the name of the board game that's kind of electronic, where you're like in a space station and have to stop this supercomputer from blowing up/taking over the world (I forgot which)? Like it would talk to you and stuff as you moved. Your pieces look like chess pawns. God, this is killing me.

Trivial Pursuit is somewhat of a tradition when we have family over.

[Zovistograt]

I play Dungeons & Dragons tabletop with my friends.  We're starting what will be my third campaign soon...once our party finally gets together >_>

I also enjoy Scrabble.  I used to love Sorry and Trouble! but I never got many people to play with me :(
