Mexican Train is so fun!! We are big gaming fans - whether it is a board game, card game, even RPG games on occasion. We have 7 people in the house, so most of our games work for that many players (which is pretty limiting overall in selection). Lately we've been playing Pandemic, 7 Wonders, Unstable Unicorns, Telestrations, Plunder, and Tsuro.
My family loves to play games. We play a standard deck card game called Tossed Salad that was taught to me by a friend - we like it because you can play with uneven numbers of people and is fairly easy to teach (if you're interested I can DM you the rules). We also like to play Bananagrams. We got Carcassonne for Christmas & my strategy loving husband & sons really love it!
@keepscrappin I got Cover Your Assets and Skulk King for the grandkids and they really liked them! Thanks for the tip!
We love Ticket to Ride (Junior) here. We have the Halloween version too and it's my all-time favorite because I get to be purple! We all love Munchkin and have a bunch of expansions, which you can mix and match. We once had superheroes and Wild West mixed in with the main deck at a friend's house and we laughed so hard we woke the babies. Oops. Dungeon Mayhem is a fun card game, especially if someone in your group loves Dungeons and Dragons. We *just* got Taco vs Burrito and it is utter mayhem dreamed up by a 7 year old and my 7 year old is obsessed. In our pre-parenting days, we would play Betrayal at House on the Hill at a friend's house. It's a long, elaborate game with a lot of pieces but so much fun to play (if someone else sets it up for me).
We play D n D twice a month! But I've not heard of this game. I'll check it out. Hubby hates this game because he thinks everyone picks on him (we do...he always wins games!) We had to put the kabosh on this game! My grandsons got to wild with it! We love Ticket to Ride here! We have several of them. My son sets it up and we play...
Yes, we do games, a lot of them are card games, when the kids were smaller, it was a way to keep them quiet and entertained when we'd travel or stop somewhere for lunch... So Queen of Spades, Kems, and Fool but also we love a good game of Carcassonne, Imaginarium (originally brought by a Russian relative, but can be played in any language), Gloomy Families, Exploding kittens, Unstable Unicorns, Cluedo, just to name a few...
I used to love playing Monopoly with my dad. I also loved Scrabble. With my daughter we play chess and Uno. For Xmas, she got a board game called Dogman (inspired by her favorite books), but I felt it was a bit boring and pointless? I don't know, even though I'm not a fan of video games, I feel like board games are a thing of the past...
