If you play board games, also sometimes known as German Boardgames here in The States, I have something for you!

A friend of mine recently finished his video he produced about the making of board games. I will link the video on youtube and if you have any questions I will point you to more information, provided you didn't find the answer on your own!

yes.

Oooh, that one looks pretty old. You probably got it at a young age?

I simply can't afford to sink that much money into these games but they are fun. My friend in the video has over 1000 such games. The practical side of me feels it's such a waste but the other side of me wishes I could do that!

Seriously, Ive never heard them called anything but board games?

Monopoly, Mousetrap, scrabble, trivial pursuit - board games, right?

Monopoly and Scrabble are by far the best two!

A board game is a board game, but so-called designer games are much more than that. There are all kinds of designer board games too.

Talisman is a good example. This game has been around for years and is in it's 4th edition. There are multiple expansions to the game as well. The link to this game, boardgamegeek.com, is a great place to find games like I am talking about.
