There a few of these games in the flat, but if you would like to try any of these please let us know and we will drop them in.
For detailed reviews try https://boardgamegeek.com/ and put in a game to find out all about it. Or if there’s a type of game you fancy just ask us and we can suggest a couple.
- Dominion (and an expansion) – My favourite game, a different stratagy needed each game
- Ticket to ride (europe) – It’s easy to build a railway, unless other people get in your way!
- Dixit – a beautiful vague game for people who don’t like strategy games!
- Blokus – shape laying, but only for exactly 4 people
- Taskmaster – Please don’t trash the appartment playing this one!
- Photosynthese – Beautiful looking, tree planting game
- Pictionary – old and worn through use
- Secret Hitler – a game like no other, good natured arguing and lying is a prerequisite!
- Saboteur – You’re a digging dwarf, but one of you is also a mole!
- Qwirkle – Tile laying
- Taboo – It’s about what you can’t say
- Backgammon
- Chess
- Ave Caesar – The only way to win is to block others, it’s not a friendly game (also quite rare so please look after it)
- Outburst
- Noteability – Bloomin hate this game as my wife is soo good at it, play notes on a rubbish piano and guess the song
- Cluedo
- Monopoly
- scrabble
- Carcassonne – build roads, castles and pastures, a calm game that’s not too competitive

- Slamwich – fast paced, slam your hand down snap-type game
- Upwords – Simpler (and better than) scrabble
- Robo Rally – very geeky robot programming game
- Hey that’s my fish – very simple, but pure logic, devoid of luck, a six year old can play it, but if adults play it, it can make your brain hurt!

- Dobble – fast paced image retention, adults are usually thrashed by teenagers
- Forbidden island – unusual collaborative game, you all win or you all die!
