Good lord! I know none of these except chess? We do the old fashioned stuff here- Trouble, Operation, cribbage... Which are good for 9 year olds? __________________________ "Trust, but verify." | |||

Qwirkle is a fairly new game that's lots of fun. NRA Life member NRA Certified Instructor "Our duty is to serve the mission, and if we're not doing that, then we have no right to call what we do service" Marcus Luttrell | |||

Used to play a lot of cribbage and pinochle. Unfortunately, as we get older, die off, and kids scatter to the winds, we don't gather as much as we used to so don't get the opportunity to play as much. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil."

Skip-Bo Phase 10 Chess Battleship Monopoly (on a rare occasion) The Wizard Always Wins Exploding Kittens Card games are easier to get through with kids <10. The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

Balderdash was always one of my favorite games. Unfortunately, one person that just doesn't get it ruins the whole experience. | |||

We really enjoy Sequence, but haven't played in years. Every time our whole family gets together, we play Play Nine or Uno Attack and have a blast. Phone's ringing, Dude. | |||

Sequence Some times, Cards Against Humanity Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it. "If dogs don't go to Heaven, I want to go where they go" Will Rogers The definition of the words we used, carry a meaning of their own... | |||

My kid is older now, but we actually enjoy Monopoly (we play it by the rules, and it actually plays out with a good pace). Sorry and Trouble are good games to have a discussion over (less strategy, so easier to have a conversation). I shall respect you until you open your mouth, from that point on, you must earn it yourself. | |||

In the service I learned to play a card game called Spoons. When you and the other players are drunk, the game can devolve into violence. Great fun, Spoons. End of Earth: 2 Miles Upper Peninsula: 4 Miles | |||

A good one among my younger family and friends is Sushi Go!(2013) But the number of good to great games that come out each year, they are hard to keep up w/. I started out w/ https://www.dicetower.com/ as a way to get my nephews off the computers and be more social. The forum there brings you to their guild at https://boardgamegeek.com/ which is another rabbit hole. Here are the Dice Tower girls reviewing their top 10, JUST, for 2020. https://youtu.be/yEq34awFucU?t=4 While using Board Game Geek to grab some popular games for the kids for Christmas and Birthdays, I've found some more complex, engaging games I play w/ my adult friends and family. We aren't overly competitive but it's a good way to immerse for an hour or two into something enjoyable once a week w/ a couple beverages and snacks. One game I always thought might be popular amongst Sigforum is https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/10630/memoir-44 And it's for ages 8+ !!! It's on my list. | |||
