What Board Game Has Your Interest

[brett05]

So I was introduced again to board games at my day job. I used to play them all the time, but only the traditional ones (Life, Monopoly, etc).

The games I am now playing probably are traditional to some, but to mainstream I am guessing not.

These games have ignited my passion so much that some of the games I have sampled at work are now purchases in the home.

Games I am playing right now are:

Dominion
Dragonwood
Munchkin
Sheriff of Nottingham
Settlers of Catan

I've also visited Will Wheaton's Youtube Channel TableTop to see how games can be played. For me it's like a demo to see if I think a game maybe worth my time.

What's got your interest?

My friends are pretty into Scythe right now.

Also 7 Wonders, Above and Below, Bang, Codenames, One Night: Werewolf, and Ticket to Ride have had their waves of popularity among my board game playing friends.

how long does it take to play?

It's pretty quick, maybe 20-30 minutes once people are familiar?

Risk falls into the traditional board game category

Sometimes it seemed like those games would take many hours, with one or two players just clinging on for life while one person slowly picked away at them.
