    Monopoly is probably my favorite. Haven't played it in a while, though.

    Eh, not crazy about Monopoly. Just get the orange properties and the game is your oyster.

    We play Clue every now and then, which has had some... interesting outcomes. There are so many times when I have a 50/50 chance of getting the accusation right and if I don't take it, one of the next people to go is bound to get it. And on a few occasions, we've had someone make a mistake when shuffling the cards and picking the end result cards face-down, so we ended up with something like two suspects, a room, but no weapons, or something weird along those lines. Sure, it messes up the game but does create comedy.

    If you want really decent games that are outside of the traditional board game circle, check out Last Night On Earth, which is a pretty good zombie apocalypse game. Another good one is Descent: Journeys in the Dark, which is more like the lines of Dungeons and Dragons, but isn't complicated at all to learn. And if you want a good card game, there's Dominion and it's plethora of expansions.

    Pandemic is a pretty amazing players vs board game game. It's one of the few games where it's decently balanced for more players AND less players. It's hard either way. lol

    It's being called by someone
    It's being able to call someone
    It's when someone is thinking of you

    Even though I inevitably lose, I've always had a soft spot for Monopoly and Clue. Chess and Mah Jong solitaire is nice, too

    I like monopoly, and clue, though I can rarely play them. Talisman, I love massively and will play whenever I get the chance. I was recently forced into playing this. It was scaryhttps://www.google.com.au/url?sa=t&r...47534661,d.aGc

    I've come to like playing Mahjong when playing it at the library. I'm still trying to get a grasp on it since I don't play very often except maybe once a month or something when the library has the programs, but it's still pretty fun. And it's actually the legitimate way to play Mahjong, not the Solitaire version, which is cool.

    I've also played Monopoly, which takes forever, Sorry (which took me a minute to understand), and a variety of other board games with some of my friends and/or family. The one I've come to hate the most is probably Risk. Lost that game the first time I played, & I haven't liked it since. xD Plus we'd be playing for hours, even after I'd lost.
