Villainous!

Being a Disney fan is a bit of a prerequisite, but Disney aside Villainous is one of the most creative and cleverly balanced games I’ve ever played.

It’s fun being evil.

Just got the new expansion last weekend, there are a lot of villains now!

How about you?

I wish that the Hero Quest reboot that Hasbro did recently was a better product. That game was SICK as a kid. Anybody ever play it?

My favorites board game is still Scrabble, but I’m also a big fan of Resistance: Avalon and Small World. I’ve also played a ton of King of Tokyo, as my then 4 year old was really into it.

Chess & Backgammon

Edit:  
I have been buying and selling high-end backgammon sets for years (mostly ebay). The prices for bakelite/catalin backgammon sets/checkers are just INSANE.

Same for chess. High-end Chess, however, has not enjoyed the same appreciation in value as backgammon. Not sure why.

I love Scrabble. I do, however, detest playing people that use words that I literally, have never heard of.  
… Just not fair.
