The Unveiled Wife Community loved it and was inspired by it to share their favorites too. The response was overwhelming as hundreds of you mentioned your favorite game or two. There were many games that people repeated, such as Ticket To Ride! I recently had the chance to play this and it was very enjoyable and entertaining.
One game that is at the top of my must play list is Blokus! It is a competitive Tetris style 4 player game…and it is awesome!
