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.

Really enjoyed Checkers for some reason. Monopoly was nice, as well as Battleship, when visiting cousins.

Operation was great fun, but made you a nervous wreck by the end. Much like Hasbro's exploding Perfection game.

Always wanted to play Clue, it looked interesting!

@SethGreene531 Checkers were fun. The cousins and I played it a lot! I don't seem to remember Exploding Perfection, though.
@LadyBronte Yeah they were. Anticipating moves was interesting, especially playing my uncle...he went undefeated, lol.

Perfection had a little wind up timer at the top, one of the lesser known games.

@SethGreene531 I see where that would be nerve wracking, especially against the reining champ. Lol.
