2 player games chess checkers and a popular game from china “Go“ Chess has 20 possible moves where “Go” is 361. I wouldn’t even start playing go however, I might start replaying chess. Right now I’m looking for games to play with my Granddaughters.

Back in college, it was all-nighters of world domination and a case of beer playing Risk. Never was good at Go but played a much shorter Korean version called Gomoku. Used to play USCF tournaments but am only rated in the upper 1400s. You could always teach them Gin, Hearts, Spades, or Poker.

 

The old classic..

Scrabble. Got a Q on my last draw the other night. No U and none useable on the board. Thought it was bad a bad draw.

Put it down on a double letter making Qi both across and down for 42 points. (Yep, it is a valid Scrabble word.)

I was pretty tough at Monopoly from about the age of 14 on. In the US we still had $500 bills in 1962. We also had $1000 bills, but alas Monopoly did not.

My personal poison is Backgammon. And my 23 year old son loves it too, so we play every once in a while and makes for excellent quality time, father-son wise.

Oh no no no no no.... I never ever wager money, and I've taught my kid the dangers of said habit.... but we do bet who's gonna buy the (craft) beers the next time we play.

It's not a board game, but I used to play "penny a point" bridge when I was young and full of myself.

Never played bridge, but I've watched others and it looks fascinating.

This is what happens when people take bridge way too seriously:

A woman killed her husband over his bidding and play of a bridge hand in 1929.​

 

I know about that story. I have never played with my wife or a significant other. The dynamics are entirely too messy.

 

Hello everyone

Let me guess you are always that guy who acquired boardwalk, Park place and the railroads. While moving the top hat around the board?

 

My parents and grandparents all had "Bridge Clubs" but my generation nor our children ever took up the habit and I wish I had. Great social game for adults.

I was that guy... except it's the wheelbarrow that I moved around the board... and I always had a get out of jail free card...

 

And I always went to jail but my little sister would slip me under the table the get out of jail free pass

 

When I was a kid I had a lot of fun with my parents and my other five siblings playing board games. That later changed to dominoes and cards when we grew up. It was God blessed quality time that I remember very fondly... I had a happy childhood in many respects.
