Board games + children's games!

[Madame No]

We have a video game thread, "currently listening to" thread, books thread...

What about other games?

What were your favorite board games and/or kids' games?

I was hugely into Yahtzee (still am), Life, and Clue.

Also, hide & seek (which is a great song by Imogen Heap, by the way), though it was totally unfair when my brother lifted up the storage part of our sectional couch and let my friend hide in there. At least she was light-headed when she got out...

How about you other 18+ folks?

Well I still play Monoply and fail at Chess, and im ok at Liars Dice. I like cards more, like Poker and Black Jack. I havent played Yahtzee in years.

Liars Dice? I haven't heard of that.

I was never very good at Chess or Monopoly.. But at least I was always the banker!

lol In Liars Dice theres 4 people who have like 5 or 6 dice each, its been a while since Ive played, and each one has a cup and you shake them in the cup like yahtzee then slam the cup on the table and look at your dice, basicaly the goal is to fool the opposition with by lying about the number on your die and how many die are on that number. It'd be easier if you looked it up. xD

o-o Why is that?

I triped over the charger cord and the laptop went for a ride, so now i have to hold the screen up. xD

Heh...personally I tend to type with one hand almost all the time! xd

My favorites as a kid were Hungry, Hungry Hippos, Ants in the Pants, Cootie, and Chutes and Ladders. There also was a game called Oh, What a Mountain! which was really fun.

I have always loved Clue and Parcheesi in particular. When I was younger, I got Scooby-Doo Clue for birthday or Christmas one year, which was about ten times better. I also love Monopoly and found Star Wars Monopoly at a garage sale for just a couple of bucks. I was ecstatic, especially when I discovered it still has all the pieces. biggrin

My favorite game in the world is Wits and Wagers. If you haven't played you better get hip!

If you've seen Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest, one of the scenes shows Liar's Dice.

Two of the board games I can never get rid of are Stratego and Talisman; my brother would always wipe the floor with me whenever we played.

I'm looking forward to the day I actually beat him in something. xp
