My favorite tabletop game is [i]Dungeons and Dragons[/i], but that only technically qualifies as a board game given it often requires a board, rather a map overlay. However, the intention seems to be more at traditional gaming, of which I admit perhaps the game I most enjoy, as stereotypical as it is, is [i]Monopoly[/i]. Why so, despite the fact I am so actually unimpressed or uninterested with it? Because it is the entertainment derived from the participants in it; the people make the game in this case. You can create a lot of amusement from the conflicts and debates that arise, much more interesting than the game itself. Probably the most infamous yet enjoyable board game I know of for the same reason but on a more novelty level, one that while I equally dislike but is an arguably a better, more diverse and dynamic game is [i]Settlers of Catan[/i]. Plenty of backstabbing, treachery, and debate with that game as with [i]Monopoly[/i] but far more unpredictable.

As for other unusual games, it is not so much a board game as a domino game, but it does share some qualities and certainly has a more unique experience is being [i]Mexican Train[/i]. It requires a bit of strategy and if played correctly can be pretty phenomenal, but it also requires minimal teaching time or experience with others to actually perform; it has a selling point there, given people tend to be fairly averse to learning new games.

For the next question, what is your favorite animal, your experiences with it, and why you adopt it in that place as your personal best? I am very curious to hear as much an in-depth analysis as one can provide rather than, "I like dogs because dogs are nice." or "Dolphins are cool." Try to sell us on your answer - always more interesting.
