    Default Favourite Board Game/Table Top

    What's everyone's favourite Board Game or Table Top.

    I have a couple that are at the top of my list:

    Catan: lots of good memories playing with the family
    Life: I play it like real life by trying to amass as much debt as possible

    Talisman is also a great game. I played this a lot in my teenage years but pretty much forgot about it because I never had anyone to play with the last few years. But I just found out this is on the Switch and I got it and have logged like ten hours in three days. Really cutting into my comic book time.

    it is great on the Switch. plays just like the board game and there are so many character packs and expansions sets it really makes it worth it. Kind of a money drain getting every thing but there is a bundle price. but if you cant swing that the base games comes with three expansions and the character packs are only 4.50 so you can get one or two extra packs to try new guys.

    Where to even begin?

    Descent: Journeys in the Dark (2nd Edition) - I'm obsessed with Fantasy Flight Games's Terrinoth universe and it all started for me with this game. It's a 1v4 fantasy dungeon crawler where one person plays the evil Overlord and up to four others play heroes of standard fantasy classes. I love miniatures and this one has a ton. I've since collected almost all of the expansions and add-ons, and they've added a 4 player co-op mode using a tablet as the Overlord.

    Abyss - Gorgeous underwater-themed game that's slightly hard to explain but incredibly fun to play. It has some of the best art I've ever seen in a board game.

    Mansions of Madness - Similar to Descent, but with Cthulhu and a 20's American setting. My gaming group always has a blast playing this game. We also have the second edition which is equally fun if not more. Like Descent's tablet co-op mode, the second edition of MoM is exclusively played as a co-op against the computer player, which makes solving clues and fighting monsters that much more intense.

    Cyclades - A very fun Risk-esque game set in ancient Greece. Players bid on offering to the major gods of Olympus and get various bonuses for doing so. It's such a fun time and involves just the right amount of strategy.

    Arcadia Quest - I actually have the Inferno version and not the original base game. My group loves this game! You build your own guild of three heroes and fight in six scenarios to see who can come out on top. It's crazy that not only are you fighting each other, but the monsters of the board game as well. A lot of strategy involved, but even better... a huge supply of minis! Especially if you pledge on one of the company's Kickstarters. They include a ton of exclusive heroes and bits to use.

    Other games that my group is loving:

    Dead of Winter

    Celestia

    Sheriff of Nottingham

    Betrayal at the House on the Hill

    Red Dragon Inn

    My old gaming group played this a couple of times, and everything that could go wrong for me did. Made for a lot of fun!

    By that logic, my latest fave game would be City of Mist. It's an urban fantasy/detective noir roleplaying game where you play a Rift, a person endowed with the powers of a being out of myth, fable or fairytale. It's got a cool concept and an interesting system.

    How does it compare to other PbtA games?
