Did you ever enjoy board games? Do you still get together with friends to play them? What's your favorite one?

I liked the game of 'Life'. I played it when I was a kid. Probably at that age, I just liked to spin the spinner and zoom the little cars full of people around the board. I actually don't remember much about it except I always laughed when I, at 6 years old, 'had' twins. Back then, I also liked Operation. My siblings always wanted to put a little electric shock on it to go off along with the buzzer. That God my mom didn't let them. Lol. I'd probably still be twitching. Monopoly was always waaaay too long and boring, Parcheesi was boring too, but Chinese Checkers were decently fun. Yahtzee was a favorite, even though technically not a board game. Clue was good one though - *said with a dramatic flair in my best stuffy English accent "the butler, with a candlestick, in the dining room" I mean who didn't love that one? Maybe I'll put together some snacks and get a group of friends together toresurrect one or two of these old classics.

I never had the opportunity to play them until I had a family. But Clue is major in our house. We like the video game version, but we do resort to the classic version from time to time.

We rather enjoy playing Life as well, even though they can tend to run pretty long.

And we created something called Sorryopoly that combines Sorry and Monopoly together with some made up rules I can’t even remember right now that had us having four-five hour long games. A ton of fun though.

@PerfectionOfTheHeart That does sound fun! I had forgotten about Sorry - my siblings and I use to play that one, too, when we were kids.
