[Ally247]

It's an underrated form of a good time

[COMMODOREII]

Sometimes you just want relax at home and have fun. You don't need to always have electronics or extravagant parties to have a good time.

[Ally247]

Exactly that. It's great to unplug and just have a bit of friendly competition lol

[COMMODOREII]

Yeah. 😂

[Gsm24diecast]

Yes Monopoly, jeopardy, chess, checkers, I’ll flip the table if I lose game, sorry, clue, scrabble , warhammer 40k , Xwing.

[Ally247]

[Ally247]

There's always one

[Gsm24diecast]

[Gsm24diecast]

Thank you very much for the mho

[Ally247]

My friends and I love to play board games. We always hang out and play cluedo, cards against humanity, the game of life and trivia for hours.

[Ally247]

Cluedo is a firm favourite of mine

[_r513nna_]

Same, it’s so fun

[JPresidente]

@Ally347 what is Cluedo?

[WhiteShoulder]

Yes. I do.

[Ally247]

What's your favourite?

[WhiteShoulder]

Chess. Dungeon! Talisman.

[Ally247]

Ooh good ones

[WhiteShoulder]

Thanks for MHO :-)

[hellionthesagereborn]

Yeah, me and my friends play board games every Wednesday. As for favorites we usually play very nerdy games, we play things like terraforming mars, western legends, descent etc. Don't know which is my favorite as they are all pretty good (but can get frustrating if you play them to long).

[Ally247]

Nice that you play regularly

[hellionthesagereborn]

yeah, its a good way to get together socialize and do something different.

[jrs91]

I love board games. Years ago my best friend at the time and I would host game night usually at his house and our friends would come over. My favorite to this day is Betrayal at house on the hill. It's spooky, intricate and is different each time you play.

[Ally247]

I haven't heard of that one. Is it similar to Cluedo or 221B Baker street?

[jrs91]

Its a kind of like clue. It starts as a co-op where you explore rooms and there's events, items and omens you can find. and in the middle of the game it is revealed that someone is a traitor and then it's the "survivors" vs the "traitor".

[Ally247]

Oh that's cool, I must check it out

[jrs91]

There are playthrough videos on YouTube. One of my favorites (and the one that got me to buy the game) is called tabletop. It stars Wil Wheaton. Look it up :)

[Ally247]

I will, thank you

[Schloss]

When my friends and I weren't so busy, I had a game night at my house every Tuesday.

One of my friends manages a comic book store and will bring games to try out. Board games and card games are what we play, and I like Flapjacks and Sasquatches the most.

[kathy1121]

I used to play board games every day during lunch when I was in school I loved d&d, talisman, space hulk, and settlers of Catan

[Ally247]

Nice way to spend lunch

[Datboi65]

My maternal uncle used to be a Chessmaster competing internationally as a hobbie back when he was in law school. I was always bad at chess growing up, but he was very patient with me as a kid trying to learn the game and he did let me win sometimes lol. Board games do remind me of my uncle.

Now? I don't own any. I don't have a chessboard or any others for that matter, but maybe I should. I will consider getting one in the near future.

[jamesgoldman]

I like Monopoly but am looking at getting Cashflow 10...'the game USA Today calls Monopoly on steroids'

[jamesgoldman]

Cashflow 101

[Ally247]

Sounds interesting, I haven't heard about that

[jamesgoldman]

Yeah I read the books from the creator but it isn't cheap at about $100

[Ally247]

An investment towards a good time

[jamesgoldman]

That and it is an educational tool

[lernulo]

I like both of them.
My favourite traditional games are Go and poker.
My favourite board game is Time stories, I really love the histories inside of it.

[Ally247]

Love a good poker game

[Sevenpointfive]

i play chess with my friend but i'm not that good. he's wicked smart yo

[Ally247]

The more you play, the better you get

[Sevenpointfive]

i don't really play even though i know the moves

[DiceyGoblin]

Yes, I definitely enjoy playing board games. I typically prefer 5 player board games such as Forbidden Desert or King of Tokyo.

Forbidden Desert is a cooperative board game that takes a decent amount of working together and creates a lot of conversation for your game night.

King of Tokyo is more of a competitive board game where you play as a rampaging monster that’s trying to defeat the other monsters.

[pigoat]

I like board games and card games you can count me in anytime

[Ally247]

Which are your favourites?

[pigoat]

Lol I'm a noob

My favorites would be the one's i know

Rummy
Casino
Monoply
Life

Unfortunately i don't hangout with people who play board/card games much

#Feelsbadman

[Ally247]

You should make the people you know get into it lol. Not necessarily a noob, Monopoly is a classic.

[BloJo]

Games are best as an excuse to spend time with friends.

[Ally247]

They really are

[drummerdude25]

I really don't like them personally... they bore me. I do like Chess though.

[Walrus_au]

We have a growing collection of board games, enjoy them. but really don't get to play as much as we want to.

Really can't pick a favorite...

[Anonymous]

Yes. I've been teaching my 6 year old cousin how to play chess.

[Ally247]

Nice skill to have

[DarthMeow]

I definitely prefer video games. It's more challenging while board games just make me rage quit.

[Exorcist_Rampage]

Yes. Checkers and chess. I'm an average checkers player and a skilled chess player.

[JPresidente]

I’m about to start playing Axis vs Allies. Anyone play before?

[Creepazoid]

does yu-gi-oh count? its a card game...

[Ally247]

Um...

[Creepazoid]

Lmao. Let's just say yes

[Creepazoid]

Its strategic

[Ally247]

If that makes you feel better, sure

[Creepazoid]

Ok then what is your preferred game?

[Ally247]

I'm kidding lol, it counts

[Creepazoid]

Lol great!!!

[Jccowen77]

Chess, monopoly, scrabble. I like all those games.

[SjE78]

depends on the boardgame tbh and my mood but yeah
