While we were playing Scrabble tonight, I got to thinking how I love word games ! Scrabble is my hands down favorite, but I love Wordle, Phoodle, and Connections. Another favorite pastime is crossword puzzles. Do you get a theme here , LOL. Do you like board games , internet games or both? If you would ,tell us some of your favorites !

OK I'll play - I grew up on board games, marbles and Jacks.  My favorites, because I win every time, are:

 

+ Checkers, Monopoly, Any Card Game, UNO, GO, and Scrabble. 

 

I don't care for computer and digital games - they give me headaches. 
People stopped playing with me because I always won - I'm not bragging because I surprised myself.  I always wanted to learn to play Chess but never found the right teacher as I think it's not intuitive. Maybe now is the time?

I've always loved board games - growing up with my family, with my husband, and with my grandson.

 

My Mom, husband, and I did the NY Times crossword puzzle.  I'd still do it but no longer receive a paper newspaper.  I've bought books of them bu I miss the daily puzzle.

I also always did a Sunday crossword puzzle in my Pittsburgh newspaper but again no longer get a paper newspaper.  I read them online.

 

I like Sudoku too.

 

I currently play Scrabble online with Pogo Games - love it.

 

I did Wordl for awhile but really didn't care for it.  Same with Words With Friends.  

 

I played Bubble Witch Saga for awhile too - it was fun.

@QVCkitty1  I play Wordle, Spelling Bee, and Connections every morning.

I also play Scrabble and Mah Jongg online.

 

When I was teaching, I always used  logic and word puzzles with my students.

Haven't played games for awhile, but used to play poker with a group of friends monthly.  I like scrabble and play mexican train--a dice game--love Uno.  DD and I play Yahtzee too. Monopoly was the game I would knock the socks off the others and win.

When our 11 year old grandchild visits, he loves playing Monopoly with us.

I used to LOVE❤️ boardgames; especially Parcheesi, Chess and Backgammon. Over the years my family lost interest in them; favoring internet games as well! I play Wordle using the app! It comes in handy at the airport when your flight is delayed for HOURS!😁

Never liked games as a child; still don't.  Figure I'm among the very few who have never played Candy Crush, or any game on my phone.
