I remember we used to have a thread for board games, which was really fun. I couldn't find it, but feel free to close this thread if you do find it.

Gosh, I thought I started one. Your brain slowly decays with old age which is why my Scrabble skills have gotten so bad.

[wanderer78]

Well, like I said, you might have. I looked but couldn't find it.

I Scrabble. I can never find anyone to play with me.

[onionroach]

You're probably good at it right? I love any game, really, even the ones that I suck at.

Me neither. Hubby has never been very good at spelling, so word games hold absolutely no appeal for him.

Wanna come visit?

We used to have Scrabble tournaments at my grandpa's house. He would always find a way to kick our butts!

Some people are just too good at Scrabble for me to play with them.


Ooh, but I rock at Boggle.

I love Boggle. I'm not very good with that game as well. But it's still so much fun. I like playing with a group of people and then we're all jockeying for position so we can see all the letters.

I had 2 older brothers & 2 sisters while growing up so I managed to play quite a few games back then like...
Monopoly(lol. I cried whenever I lost everything), Scrabble, Battleship, Spill and Spell, Mastermind, Checkers, Trouble, Operation, Perfection, Reversi (aka Othello)

Oddly enough I've never played popular favorites like Clue, the Game of Life, Yahtzee, Boggle, Risk, Backgammon or Mousetrap before. And I never could grasp Chess...which is really too bad because they have some amazing collectible Chess sets out there.

I enjoy the games that challenge your thinking skills. So I bought Mastermind, Blokus and Hopper for my neice & nephew to play when they visit. They usually play my PS2, but they seem to like these games when they want a change of pace.

I really enjoy Mastermind and we bought it for my boys last year. They like it too. I've never played Backgammon. I grew up playing mostly card game until I was a teen and then I really liked the kiddie stuff, like Hungry, Hungry Hippos and PickUp Sticks and Operation.

I haven't played Boggle in years! I should really play it

[wanderer78]

OMG, you guys are bringing back so many memories. I 'd Mastermind. My sister and I used to play it all the time. Boggle too.

[onionroach]

I'm thinking about teaching the boys to play Spoons, but I'm worried that it might get too violent.

[wanderer78]

My sister and I used to fight over game stuff. Actually, she'd start crying if she was losing. So the game would be over.

Spoons and Mastermind - what is that?!
