Favorite Games

As a family that doesn’t watch a lot of TV, we love to play games together! Below are some of our favorite board games, card games, computer games, and games played outside. Please feel free to chime in your favorites in the comments!

Mark—Two of my favorite games are actually computer games. I enjoy playing MS Flight Simulator and MS Combat Simulator on occasion. I typically enjoy games with some strategy, so I would have to say Clue, Monopoly, Battleship, Life, and Chess would be some of my favorite board games.

Betsy—My all-time favorite board game is one that I had as a child, but have never seen around as an adult. It was called “Square-Off.” It involved moving tiles on a board at top speed against an opponent. I also loved Parcheesi, which my parents and I would play a lot. Current favorite board games are Battleship, Monopoly, Hugger Mugger, and Pictionary.

Bianca—Probably my favorite game to play outside is Capture the Flag, especially if it’s played in the dark with friends! J As far as board games I enjoy Monopoly, Life, Aggravation, and Clue. When it comes to card games, I enjoy Spoons and Dutch Blitz.

Ben—My favorite computer games are Madden Football and GRID racing. My favorite board games are chess, Battleship, Life, and Monopoly. I also like Aggravation and Trouble, which are similar.

Rubia—I like to play tag. As for board games I like chess, Life, Aggravation, and Battleship. I also like hide-and-seek and Capture the Flag.

Roma—When it comes to favorite games, I like a lot of board games. I like Don’t Break the Ice, chess, Clue, Life, Aggravation, and Battleship. When I’m outdoors I like to play games that involve running.

Josiah—I LOVE to play chess! I also like to play Aggravation, Life, and Clue.

Oh, we like that game too, Amy! It can be quite a challenge though.

I have heard of a few of the games you mentioned, Leah. I went on a missions trip to Mexico several years ago, and all of the kids who went on the trip would play President during the bus rides and in the evenings. Perhaps I should teach that one to my siblings!
