Favorite Board Games

Aggravation is also a great game!

I'll look into Ticket to ride and Settlers of Catan. He loves the strategy games and I would like to give him a little challenge at least.

Yeah, I have a few really religious cousins and every Christmas they'd show up with some new board game. I guess when you don't drink or do drugs or gamble or just generally **** your life away on cheap thrills...life is pretty boring and you tend to play a lot of board games. Well, anyways, they'd always ask me to play and at first I'd look at it and kinda think, "ughhh....that looks stupid..." but then I'd start playing it and think, "Man...this game is pretty SWEET!!" Settlers of Catan, Blokus, and Ticket to Ride are all 3 games they introduced me to. All 3 are remarkably simple in concept...fairly easy to learn in about 2 tries...and have won a bunch of "board game awards".

Anyone remember "Go To the Head of the Class?"

Awww...I loved that game as a kid!

sort-of-a-board game but made of modern plastic. Yes,,, It was one of Icemans, "break the ice" games on a first date! Made some of my most famous moves using this game!

How does someone that makes that post ever find a girl to marry him.

For anyone born prior to 1950 or after 1952....please don't follow that advice. Asking a girl on your first date to play a game of Twister is liable to result in being slapped and most likely blacklisted in the female community.

Good Girls don't play Twister...

1. Buck Rogers: Battle for the 25th Century
2. RISK
3. Castle Risk
4. Settlers of Catan
5. Ticket to Ride
6. Blokus
7. Monopoly
8. Stratego
9. Scrabble
10. Chess

If your husband likes Stratego, but you not so much...try Ticket to Ride or Settlers of Catan. Both are very highly ranked...both deal with strategy to a degree...but are more fun for people that don't necessarily like too much strategy.

I wouldn't recommend the #1 game on my list to anyone else...simply because most people dislike RISK because it's so dang long and bowing. Buck Rogers is like, for the people that think RISK should be more in depth and take 5x longer. I've never finished 1 game of Buck Rogers in < 1 day....which is also why I have no friends willing to play that game with me.

Like Aslan, I like 2, 7, 8, 10. Do not kow the others.

I really loved skittle bowl. Unsure if that is the right name. Anyways a wooden ball was attached to a chain connected to a stick. Swing it around to hit wooden pins in a deep dish. It was good times, until the chain broke and the ball went through, and broke, a glass window. Dad got home from work and...............you know how it ends...
