Enough with these damn digital games! What are your favorite board games? Y'know the ones made out of plastic and dead trees.
Here are my all-time favorites:
StrategoI love this game. Chess was always too confusing for me, checkers was too simple and Risk too way too much time to play. Enter Stratego! Think of it as capture the flag meets minesweeper. I loved how you could customize where your soldiers, bombs and flag were. I had some pretty sneaky layouts. once I placed the flag in such an obvious place that my opponent walked right past it.
ClueA classic. Like Stratego, it was easy to set up and play, but offered up a unique experience with every game.
HeroQuestMilton Bradley's version of D&D, but much easier to learn and play. Plus you get it all in one box, expansions were not necessary though they did have them. I have the Return of the Witch Lord expansion, which adds skeletons and a Witch Lord to the mix. I'm gonna have to get this game back from my parents basement one of these days.
