Games I like
For some reason I love chess, as far as board games go it is almost perfect (unless you are in competition when it can be brutal).

Re: Games I like
That is some kind of tile game like dominoes isn't it? I have seen sets of the tiles and their size is about the same as the domino tile but I have never played it.

Re: Games I like
Yes - played with tiles that have different values and emblems on them. The basic game is very simple but there are so many much more complicated variations as you learn more and more, and it's fascinating and very stimulating! The Chinese play it so fast, amazing to watch them.
I've never played chess although my husband and sons do, regularly - it's too slow for me!

Re: Games I like
That is one of the things I love about chess hehehe... you can make a move or two then go do other things before coming back to it
Some friends and I tried to do that with Monopoly once and the results were not pretty hahaha
I like Monopoly but with a time limit so it doesn't take all day to play one game.

Re: Games I like
Scrabble is another one I enjoy because I love words. But there needs to be a time limit set there or it can also drag on forever. Articulate, Boggle, Balderdash are also good.
Have given them all away now which was perhaps a mistake, but they can always be replaced. I still have my Mah Jong set and dominoes (9s) and of course Chess.
When the kids were younger we would go on holiday with all these games and several more as well - Cluedo, Monopoly, MAD, Reversi, etc and we had such fun with all of them. I so miss those days!
