I never liked Monopoly, but I did love Trouble, and Clue, and Four Score. Oh, and spit (the card game).<br /><br />These days, we are loving playing a lot of Jenga and Mancala--games that are fun for adults as well as kids.susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12000470374101306070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5093595950676123854.post-32982897249004003822010-09-07T20:28:16.019-04:002010-09-07T20:28:16.019-04:00I remember Mastermined, too.

Plus I remember really getting into Monopoly, and setting up games with my stuffed animals as the other players. I also remember a lot of card games.

We played tons of games but that one and Racko were my favorites.

But it does sound a little like Guess Who? that we play sometimes.<br /><br />As a kid we didn't really have many games, we mostly played cards -- crazy eights, rummy, 500. Although I did play RISK with my brother, and we had Miles Bourne (did you post about that before, or was it Slouchy? one of you did!).Life in Edenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15191548142552797374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5093595950676123854.post-28355687445668582332010-09-07T18:06:55.590-04:002010-09-07T18:06:55.590-04:00I loved Mastermind as a kid and I've been want...I loved Mastermind as a kid and I've been wanting to get AJ a copy, but they seem to have dumbed it down from 5-peg codes to 4. As a result, we don't have a game.

I lived monopoly, clue, yahtzee, Hen andchicks, and gin rummy. A game I bought this year was No Stress Chess which teaches the game in steps using cards to dictate moves initially. I'd recommend that one.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
