Christmas board games

 I’ve  not played a solo or Zoom wargame since Christmas but have enjoyed some board games with the family. Alice Chess remains popular here. I was given 221b Baker Street and we tried it out yesterday. Lovely looking board and fun detecting. Earlier we had played the UNO esque Mind the Gap and we have also played the cooperative game Forbidden Island. No we shall get some other games out in the coming days. What have you been playing?

  1. We definitley try to get the kids away from TV or gamebox type machines when we can. This year we dug out an old 40 odd year old game that our children used to play. 'Take The Brain' is being written up for my own blog later today.

  2. Sadly nothing this year. Not even charades. Though I do have This War Without an Enemy (ECW board game) to delve into.

  3. Charades on Christmas and three games of chess using a new set my wife gave to my son and me for Christmas this year. Backgammon this evening, and of course the p=ongoing game of toy soldiers with our son.
