Re: Favorite Board Games
Recently played Agricola, and it's one of my new favs. Takes a little to get into it, but it's a fun experience.

Re: Favorite Board Games
Where do you even buy all these weird games everybody has posted about?

My current favorites are 7 Wonders and a game called "Glory To Rome". There are also a number of good games available for IPad and IPhone; if you have one of those devices that would be a cheaper way to find out if you like this sort of thing.

Search for a game, and there is usually a "Shop" link next to each item in the list of results. Or you can just use Google to get the best prices.

Re: Favorite Board Games
I always liked the board game TROUBLE as a kid. I think I may buy it to take camping next year.

Re: Favorite Board Games
Being the old foggy that I am, raised in the 60's, that was more up my alley. Back then you didn't have video games, TV wasn't 24/7 and you were lucky to get 6 channels between VHF/UHF. So we played a lot of the classic board games..... Monopoly, Life, Clue, Sorry, Parchessi, Bingo, Yahtzee, Chinese Checkers. If it was made by Parker Bros, MB, Hasbro, Marx, or Ideal, we had it.
I remember these two.... ![]() My brother and I use to play the heck out of this, and I found it again a few years ago.

Re: Favorite Board Games
Got to play 7 Wonders for the first time yesterday. I can see why several people on here listed it as a favorite. Very fun game that we'll have to include into our rotation.
We also played Power Grid. The box looked like it would be a cheapish game but I thought it was a lot of fun. It reminded me of Ticket to Ride but with more strategy/less luck. |

Re: Favorite Board Games
I love Apples to Apples but I almost always play it with a large group so some of the answers end up being beyond ridiculous.
![]() My favorite board games right now are Scattergories (that counts, right?!) and Cranium. I enjoy the Trivial Pursuit types of games but I usually suck at them which bums me out when I lose badly to everyone else. I'm undefeated in the Pop Culture DVD version though!
