Oh what do you play?!

One of my friends host board game night once in a blue moon and it's so much fun

Mostly backgammon. But I like Monopoly, just hard to find people who want to play. I should ask around again though. Sounds like the interest is growing.

Ive even seen them at bars and cafes near me.

Whats your favorite tabletop game to play?

I like chess but my grandpa loved backgammon so I can play a mean game.

Backgammon is good. I like it because you can still carry a good conversation while playing
