Ontopic A thread about board games

Its CHUTES and ladders you dipshits

Someone here has a kid and is forced to play on the reg.

Well... There are adult games and then there are Shoots and Ladders and Life.

Ah, I see. His position has been laid bare to me as there is absolutely no analogue in animated film-- not one. It was, upon reflection, really madness to broach the subject at all.

In my country (the original country) it's merely called snakes and ladders. No shooting or chuting involved.

Typical Americans replacing snakes with guns.

I strongly dislike Monopoly and Life.

do you play monopoly by the actual rules or do you have stupid shit like taxes going to whoever lands on free parking and no bidding?

 

[Dory Berkowitz-Bukowski]

After watching those videos (sad I know) I think Semper slightly resembles the great WW.

Also would play either of those games, Munchkin sounds hella complicated to begin with though.

The way you word things makes me giggle.

I don't even know. It's just such a long drawn out game with little excitement.

I slaughtered @fly and @Wessels last week at a game though. That's what they get for asking me to play. hmpf.

I've seen the snakes variant, but chutes make more sense. You climb up or slide down

Not sure why I posted this in this thread... accidentally... it's only semi-nws because of a dildo.

also, munchkins sounds complicated at first but within five or ten minutes you're spending most of your time choosing which friend to fuck over the hardest. the instructions are very short and the cards themselves have most of the detail necessary to play

a monopoly game played with the standard rules should take about 30 minutes, 45 max

SmashUp is a ton of fun, but a bit complicated. Apparently, its kinda like MTG

Forbidden Desert is also great. It's a co-op game for up to five people.

And finally, Citadels. Which is just a fantastic game

Not really, but the with the new speed dice, yes.

 

[Mean Mr. Mustard]

more like BORED games, amirite?

The best board game ever is Trivial Pursuit. Everything else pales in comparison.

Nothing beats a 8+ hour marathon of Axis and Allies

We have a bunch of Munchkins packs. I love board games, all kinds. I don't have enough people in my life that want to play the more complicated ones so I don't have many. We have the Civilization board game and I've only played it once.

Settlers of Catan is one of my favorites. I love Catch Phrase for large groups. Outburst and Scattergories are also fun. We played Cranium the other night. Balderdash is great too.

I never play this because Dan is in my life and he is full of useless information. I know from the start I'm going to lose.
