What are your family's favourite board games?

[LocalEdPeterborough]

We were at a board game cafe on Saturday and it makes such a inference to try out the games before buying for home. Games I thought my son might like were a flop. At least I hadn't bought it yet.

Our current favourites are:

JamSumo - a dice flicking game

Each game is handmade to order

Tsuro
This is like those puzzles in kids magazines but each player chooses the path by laying down a tile. The aim is to follow a path that stays on the board. Easy to understand (for me)

Rapidough - very funny game like charades but with playdoh.

What do you enjoy playing at home?

I would love to read your recommendations and favourites.

Best wishes

Firm family favourites are The game of life, Uno, monopoly (not my favourite but the children love it), scrabble (well, that's my favourite!).

Thank you for the recommendation of the board game cafe - we went this weekend and it was a lot of fun. I couldn't believe how many games they had - I'm seriously jealous! We played JamSumo - it's now on my wish list, as is Dixit, which is a game I'd been considering for a while. Looking forward to going back next month!

We love ‘Home Run’ which is also known as Frustration
