What is your favourite board game? WHY ?

I was raised during a time without TV, so we played a lot board games in the evenings. When I raised my son, I did the same. Being a boy I had to change some of my tastes to accommodate his likes as well.

We mostly played Monopoly.....Garfield & Star Wars versions, RISK...again STAR WARS version,

There are so many good ones, most of which have been mentioned here already. But if I had to pick one, it would have to be Monopoly because it is a game that anyone can play and win. There's a lot of strategy and you can really see a person's character when the competition gets going!

I'm down with Scrabble! It's not my favorite word game (including both the traditional board variety and the digital kind), but it's a challenge and it exercises my mind and my vocabulary ... both of which I enjoy!

Chess. I love how it makes me think. I also like aggrevation which is a game played on a board with marbles. I don't even know if they make it anymore.

As far as board games, gotta go with RISK, best way to spend a drunkin' night home with buds. Next to that, I'd say monopoly.

But socially my mom is a game lover, and we'd go between scruples, true colors, and we looooved taboo and catchphrase.

I don't like Monopoly; too much luck.

I don't like chess; not enough luck!

I do enjoy Trivial Pursuit, and I never remember the answers.

RISK - because it is EPIC!!!

Don't like chess because it's only 2 player.

Pictionary- lots of fun and scrabble only if i'm the cleverest :) once played a version of monopoly called Ghettopoly set in the ghettos- it was hysterical (not to offend anyone) but you bought crack houses and dodgy chinese take outs and massage parlours and the icons were a dope leaf and a gun etc

My family was also big board/card games players. It was usually my mom and us 3 kids that played. we played everything! Parchessi (sp?), Clue, Monopoly, Sorry, Pizza Party, Splat, and SO many others! My fave now would have to be monopoly tho...i have 12 different versions...including a Star Wars one (my personal fave), and the most recent Indiana Jones. It's something you can just really sit down and play and make an evening out of it :)

just taught my 5 yr old daughter how to play monopoly jr tonight...she thinks it's fun! lol
