  16. Mindwalker says:

    Definately backgammon in my opinon. My dad always said it was the game of life. Some of what you get rolled is luck, but you will always have to move with what you have.

    Live, learn, enjoy :)

    Draughts

  33. sweetpsychosis says:

    othello definitely

  34. Minouners says:

    In my opinion, Cribbage is the best. It makes you think and you have to have a certain strategy. Depending on how often you play, you can tell how the other player starts playing. If you’re bad in math, it’s a great way to get better!

  35. miskeny says:

    backgammon

  36. Redhead says:

    cribbage and backgammon are good ones

  37. Caam says:

    5 seconds chess, its the same a chess but speedier so the game doesnt drag!

  38. Chad K says:

    My favorite two-player game has to be Memoir 44.

    In addition, I really enjoy Jambo, Tally Ho, Roma, Ta Yu, and Streetsoccer.

    Many of these games are not mainstream games that you’ll find at Walmart or Target. If you want to look into them some more, I suggest browsing around at:

  40. Danaerys says:

    My favorite is Lost Cities. The rounds are fairly short and you can play as many or as few rounds as you like. It’s addictive.

    “Trouble” is fun, that is if the popping bubble doesn’t annoy you.
