I was ready to go to bed about...ooohhh...two hours ago, but I was roped into staying awake and playing TriBond. So, what is your favorite?

I think my favorites are all trivia related. Trivial Pursuit, etc.

Yours?

Was Monopoly. Now I'm just bored, period. :)

Me, too, Susie. Bored, that is.

I actually haven't played any board games in a long, long time.

No board needed. Gimme a few friends and family, 5 dice with something to shake them in, and a score sheet. Add drinks and snacks, and we've got the makings of an all-nigher.

I like Apples to Apples now, but I was a Monopoly fan.

Scrabble too.

Roulette or Poker :D Seriously, that's my answer. I love them and get bored of the others too fast.

Wait! Battleship was kinda cool :)

Scrabble, followed closely by Trivial Pursuit games. One of the first board games I played (besides the usual Candyland stuff) was Stratego. It's still sort of fun. :)

BOARD games people - with a board.
My family are board game nuts, but RISK has dominated for quite some time. I believe there's one called Campaign - anyone know anything about it?
Shadow - em, that's the objective...
LOVE THAT HIPPO JOKE! nice link!

Um. Chess has a board. You play on a Chess BOARD.

And the objective is to waste time? No wonder I don't like games.

My dad taught me to play chess when I was seven. I have never, in 26 years, beaten him. Or even drawn.

My uncle, incidentally, is a Master. Could have been a Grand Master by now, but gave it up to concentrate on his secular work (chartered accountancy).

Aside from chess, I like Cluedo best.
