My favorite card games are Chess and Monopoly. I really love chess for logical and strategical game, it boosts my mind. For a family game, we always do is play the Monopoly, and i enjoyed playing it with my family members.
We usually play Monopoly or Activity at our house, but I personally prefer either RISK or a good old fashioned D&D game.
Monopoly is my favorite board. It's been around for a long time, and it brings back great memories of when I was kid. My brother, friends, and cousins would gather around in the living room, and we would play monopoly.
