Board Games - What's Your Favorite?

[bhiett]

I used to love Chinese Checkers and played it by the hour.  My brother and I grew up on board games--I wish I could remember all the different games we played.  I remember one called "Uncle Wiggly" that most people probably have never heard of.  Our family often played together, which made for enjoyable and bonding group activities.

We don't have much time to play too many board games in the summer, but in the winter my husband and I play Scrabble. Every since our daughter was a baby, we would spend our evening playing. I feel like it is quality time for him and I without having to spend money going out all the time. We have tried a few other games, yahtzee, monopoy, ect. but Scrabble is always our favorite. A really good one to play with our whole family is Logo, we laugh and laugh at that one.

Monopoly, I think.

I've actually never played monopoly until recently. As a kid, though friends and cousins had the game, other than taking the board and messing around, I never actually sat down and played a real game. I recently picked up on it and play it every day now. Not the actual board, but on the computer. My wife keeps kicking my butt on the iPad but I don't mind. I like trying to figure out a strategy. It's only a matter of time before I return the favor to her

My son and I play frequent board games, mainly due to my trying to limit the amount of video game time he plays. We play Monopoly often and he is good at it. He kicked my rear end the other day in just over an hour...and neither of us got Boardwalk or Park Place.

We play checkers a lot and he is getting better. We also do some card games, Sorry, and he still loves Hungry, Hungry Hippos. Now I am trying to teach him about chess. That is a work in progress, but he's coming along. Except, his attempts to say, "Daddy, what is that over there?" Then I look and he takes one of my pieces.

As far as board games go, I have to say Trivial Pursuit, however we really play more card games than board games.  I also love to play chess but can rarely find anyone who will sit and get into a chess match with me.

I love most board games but I would say my favorites are clue and monopoly.

I love checkers. My dad taught me to play as a little girl. I've been hooked ever since.

I won against my wife twice in monopoly! So, now I'm done haha. I actually had my fill and I'm over it. I just wanted to know I could do it.

Pictionary is my favorite when we have a group of us together.  The drawings are quick, but they convey the message to the team mates.

I also enjoy Scrabble and Boggle.

When I was a kid it was Perfection (how I loved that game  ) and Monopoly.

I love to play board games with the family - especially when we're with our grandchildren ages 16 and 12.  One of my favorites is Balderdash.  It can get very hilarious.  What is the one that you enjoy the most?  Always on the lookout for something new for the family to enjoy!
