Does Heroscape count???
Looks interesting.. sadly I never got past old fashioned board games
Old fashioned board games are really great. They are simple to learn, but can take a long time to master.
Personally, I still love the ones I grew up with the most. I refer to them as "Classic" Board Games now since most people have vastly different ideas of board games nowadays. Those include: Monopoly, Life, Scrabble, Risk, Chess, Checkers...that's all I can think of at the moment. Of course, I have more kid-oriented games too from my childhood. In Crossbows & Catapults, you actually assemble a castle out of loose-fitting blocks and your opponent does the same several feet away. Then you launch plastic discs in an attempt to destroy each other's castles! So much fun, adults are way too serious though, so I never get to play anymore.
