    Default BOARD games

    anybody like board games??

    obviously all the classics like...ugh..monopoly and clue...

    but what about obscure/geeky board games like junta, kremlin, mutant chronicles, hero quest, settlers of catan, etc?

    Is Risk geeky enough?

    I also really enjoy playing APBA baseball and golf (similar to Strat-O-Matic)...the board game versions.

    I have not played any of the really obscure board games you mentioned.

    I have a game called Perquacky. It is boggle...without bounds.

    Mille Bournes is a card game that I have but have not played that my friend has played but does not have...go figure.

    I am a huge monopoly/life addict though. Best board games EVER!

    and, for the girl that i am, i was obsessed with candy land for quite some time

    They have almost no FMVs and the storylines suck.

    I remember a few years ago I went to a friend's house and he taught me how to play Risk, then I played a game with him and his brother. That was the first and last time I played it.

    I like Boggle alot, most board games just rely on luck, I prefer to actually think during a board game...if I wanted to play Snakes and Ladders, I might as well flip a coin, its the same game...

    Hmmm...Scrabble. I've never lost in Scrabble...my vocabulary is too extensive.

    Also Othello, mastermind, chess, even though I'm not very good at it. Anything that makes me think.

    Oh, and Clue. Gotta have Clue.

    There was this board game a long time ago called Arch Rival. It was basically a balancing game using brightly colored pieces. Anyone remember this one?
