D'oh! Snow? Give Those Dice a Roll, It's Game Day!
Posted Thursday, February 15, 2007 at 09:58AM
With the snow piling up higher and higher outside, it’s easy to go a bit mental from cabin fever when you’re trapped inside. Hopefully you’ve stocked up on a good supply of movies, books, hot cocoa, and … board games! But not just any board games, like Monopoly of Scrabble. Oh no, those are boring and will drive you crazy faster than the next weather report. These games go above and beyond the old school stuff, and are more fun than you can shake a stick at. Plus, they’ll help you forget that your house is currently buried under 47 feet of snow, require no electricity, and probably won’t melt at high temperatures. They also probably will stimulate your brain more than a mindless button-mashing video game will, but I’m not promising anything. if you learn something, you’re on your own.
Snatch - this word based game allows you to be extremely sneaky and steal your opponent’s words and use them for your own diabolical needs. It’s a tiny bit like Scrabble, but on steroids, and with a high-speed rocket attached to it. Mix things up as much as you can, and try to steal as many letters and words as possible. As a bonus, it comes in a really spiffy tube that carries the whole game, making it portable and fun, all in one.
Abalone - No, it’s not a fish — instead it’s a extremely simple, yet very fun game using black and white marbles. Basically, you line up your marbles and use them to “push” your opponent’s marbles off of the playing grid. It’s based on Sumo wrestlers and their movements, but you won’t have to bulk up to play this. It’s also one of those games that you can leave lying around to make you look smart, like a chess set.
