I have not met many people that know how to play either of them, let alone both. Kudos to you. Both were very popular in my family too. We still have some pretty fierce games when we get together for family reunions.

We have fun with Clue, Skip-bo (good for more than 4), Rack-O, Rook. Pictionary is good when you have 3 boys who cannot draw anything. So is charades, they can't act or keep their mouths shut. More entertaining vs. being a real game.

If you want everyone to go to bed mad, Monopoly. Always starts out with so much promise, but when it goes bad it goes bad quickly.

My favorite growing up and now with my kids is Uno.

But I have fond memories playing backgammon and cribbage with my grandma. She started cheating and blamed it on her memory, she eventually got diagnosed with dementia so I think she was telling the truth.

Risk.


Played an unopened box from 1998 a couple days ago. Thanks Antiquetiger!

Catan is great.
Trogdor is fun

If you want to start a family fight, the board game Sorry 100% left someone pissed off in my family growing up.

Recently my family plays a lot of One Night Ultimate Werewolf. It's a pretty fun game that usually evolves after a few rounds.

Also jack box party packs for fire stick is lots of fun. They make like 7 packs and I have 5 of them. They can get R rated with the right crowd but it doesn’t have to be.
