My husband and I play table games a lot, although annoyingly we've played them a lot on our phones and computers more than over an actual table. That's usually because it's more convenient or because we can play them away from home or whatever, but I miss playing table games on a table like I used to with my mom. We need to do that more. My son's favorite game is Uno. My husband and I like Monopoly, as well as a lot of different dice games: 3's, Farkel, 1, 4, 2, 4, etc. We also need to get our outdoor Twister game set up sometime. That would be fun to do, and it has snakes and ladders on the back side but we haven't tried playing that one yet. So do you like table games? If so, which ones? I like and have played a lot more than just that, but that's just a sampling of ones I like. My mom and I used to play Skip Bo for quarters, and we played Canasta as well. I should get back into those sometime. My husband and I also want to learn to play Chess.

I know the feeling. I've never liked physical Monopoly as it takes like a minimum of 3 hours, and I've seen it go 6 or more, but I love Scrabble and I can't find anyone who'll play that much anymore. My son and husband and I sometimes play Sorry

I also like playing board games. Three of my most favorites are Monopoly, Scrabble and of course Chess. For Chess, I play it online most of the time. For the other games, I sometimes play with my coworkers during break time since we have them at the office. It's a good bonding experience for everyone.

I want to learn Chess. I've never heard of a place of business that plays table games at lunch. Most are much more serious than that. I think it's pretty cool though.

My kids also enjoy the board games and other physical games. Outdoor or indoor they are always excited.

I like Scrabble a lot too, but never can seem to find someone to play it with.
