Favorite table top game?

Personally, I love reading about people's favorite mmo's, experiences, etc. A fun way to kind of get to know the community. So, I'm curious about people's favorite table top games.

D&D will always be a favorite, though I rarely play it now. First played it some 40 years ago (yeah, I'm an old geezer). I don't think the first Players Handbook had been published yet. Of course, we used paper & pencil.

Games a group us of play now, though, include, but not limited to, Race for the Galaxy, Roll for the Galaxy, Boss Monster, Lords of Waterdeep, and Dungeon Quest. (Dungeon Quest is hilarious fun after you've had a couple of beers, and you don't care about winning).

    Ok where do I start.

    I have been playing D&D for years and I have run game as a DM and played much more. I have spent over £12000 on Warhammer 40k which I have backed since 3rd edition and I have spent around £4000 on fantasy and around £300 on the odd games here and there
  • I'm pretty useless on table top but I'd love to get a good game of DnD going. Sadly the DM bailed on the last game I tried to get into because of complications. I've been trapped in drunken monopoly though. It's fun until you realize your luck is garbage and roll jail 7 times in a row somehow. -.- I had to down a beer every time too lol.
  • Old school Risk and Stratego all the way.

    Mix in a little Secret Hitler and it's a great night in my books!

  • D&D is my favorite.
  • As long as I have my humorous fun friends that I like to hang out with, the game doesn't matter, but mostly it's Monopoly or Taboo, which are -I know- very common very common. But if it makes you laugh and tease each other during game it's fun.

     There is no D&D culture in my country, and people are not really into Role Playing that much, aside from the ones who are constantly engage themselves with world wide rpg culture. In the other hand, there is a massive amount of MMORPG players playing the game for fighting and winning like Street Fighter games instead of dreaming a character and role playing.
  • Any table top RPG really, the particular system doesn't bother me much. The majority of my gaming experience is with D&D. Starting with advanced D&D 2nd ed to 5th ed. 

    I like board games and card games too! Settlers of Catan and Magic the gathering are the 2 standouts, but I've dabbled and played quite a large number of other games.

    @Umji is developing a boardgame right now as well, so I've been spending time with her helping out with the play testing. Probably a few months away from being ready for a possible crowdfund so I'm excited for her as well!

    Haha. I tried a few rounds of secret Hitler a month or two back, I like the idea and the flavour even if the gameplay was a little simple. 

    Funny party game especially when you start sowing discord.

    Sounds impressive! Look forward to hearing more about it :smile:
  • Dominion is my current favourite. Settlers of Catan is a good one too.

    Ooh yeah. Dominion is one of the famous ones that I've not had a chance to try. I'll have to purchase it one day. 
  • Scrabble has always been my favorite over the years.  I even figured a way to play against myself. lol   I never had much time to play other games until the late 90's. By then it was time for the MMO's.
