I would love to see more board games developed. Top of my list include: Risk: Yes, many of us are familiar with this game of world conquest. I'd love to play against the computer, or find ways to make it an Internet game, and play with human opponents.
Ticket to Ride: The goal of this game is to build trains all across the map (there are currently three: U.S., Europe, and Germany specifically). It's a lot of fun. San Juan: A resource building game, where you're trying to build the city of San Juan. You build buildings, factories and other resources that each help you earn victory points. Playing against the computer would be good, but against other people is better. San Juan is actually a card game, but it's based on a board game called Puerto Rico. Talisman: A fantasy game where each player takes on the role of a character with special abilities: thief, warrior, prophetess, monk, etc. You navigate around the board, encountering adventures in the various spaces, and drawing cards to encounter your foes, treasures and the like. Originally released in the 1980's, with many expansions, the actual game will be re-released this summer. I'd love card games that I could play against others, such as hearts, pinochle and the like. There's a cool card game called Five Crowns, which is an enhanced version of rummy. There are also word games like Palabra and Quiddler which test your word knowledge against that of your opponents. OK, I've rambled enough for now. _______________________________________________ Gamers mailing list ..
