and puzzles are still one of the popular entertainment items, even after the video
games revolution in the past 20 years. Board games are played on a premarked surface,
and usually contain specific counters to move across the board. Simple board games
such as Snakes and Ladders are often seen as ideal "family entertainment"
and can be played by ages young and old.But board games can be advanced, most
notably chess, which has intense strategic values and has been played for centuries.
Other board games introduce role playing such as the Warhammer games from Games
Workshop. More general role playing games include Monopoly and Cluedo. These games
surround real estate pruchasing and a muder mystery. Puzzles and word games are
prehaps the most long standing inventions such as Scrabble. Then you have the
quiz games, such as Trivial Pursuit. | | | | Selected
