Risk is too complicated, and I don't like playing it. Besides, what's wrong with subjugation. It's handy when you're cold and starving.

Does anyone remember the game Scotloand Yard? I remember seeing it advertised back in the 80's but haven't seen it in a while...always looked interesting.

I have it at home. It's fun, if horribly horribly frustrating.

I've always loved Monopoly and Life.

The problem in Monopoly when my brother and I used to play like every day was that we had our favorite properties we'd always get, and if I got the green one and he got the yellow one, we'd just swap. >_>

But it's fun, different job, different house, insurance, kids, etc.

I picked up Munchkin yestarday. I'm looking forward to playing it but am a little confused - on the box it says you can play with 2 - 6 players, but the instructions say at lest 3 players...any one play with just 2 peoples? Does it work or do you really need more people to play?

I've played with two before. It works, but it's better with at least 3, preferably 4 minimum. Makes the backstabbing and the ganging up on each other easier.

The more, the merrier. Playing Munchkin with just two people is kind of boring. I agree, three or four people minimum is best.

I always liked Killer Bunnies more then Munchkin, but both are fun sometimes.

I always enjoy a good game of Scrabble, Monopoly, or Chess.
