Collecting board games

TLDR: Collecting board games
In the forum thread, user "burtie" discusses their collection of board and card games, expressing enthusiasm for acquiring and playing various games. Burtie mentions owning games like Cluedo, Monopoly, Yahtzee, poker dice, and two decks of cards, and has recently purchased Risk, a special glass edition of Scrabble, a vintage mahjong set, and is considering buying a set of dominoes. They also bought a book titled “The Encyclopedia of games” which includes rules for 200 games and expressed a desire to purchase a games table. Another user, "Lee", shares their interest in Cluedo, chess, and tabletop games with miniature figures, hoping to engage their kids in these games. Both users reminisce about the enjoyment of playing these games and discuss the potential of setting up regular game nights. Key points include Burtie's ongoing efforts to expand their game collection and the shared interest in classic and tabletop games for social gatherings and family entertainment.
I have Cleudo & Monolopy. Yahtzee, poker dice & two decks of cards.

I want to get Risk & Scrabble

At the day centre it was great fun in the boards games group. We played the new ones.

Which ones do you like?
 
I want a set of dominoes. There are some antique ones on eBay, which look nice. Or I could buy a more modern set.
 
We have monopoly and some kid based board games.

I really want to get Cluedo though, I have such fond memories of playing this with my parents as a child.

Yes Cluedo was a good fun growing up. I have a good collection of the classics now. I have my eye on a nice coffee table, with built in chess & gaming boards. Maybe I can arrange a regular gaming night with some locals :)
 
Ohhh chess is another great game, we play on our break at work sometimes. But I’m not the best by a long shot!
 
I'm a big fan of table top games too, with miniature figures, etc.

Hopefully my kids get in to it so I have an excuse :D
 
My glass scrabble board arrived. It is in fine condition. I have it stored in a cotton bag. I counted the tiles, and they are a full set. I ordered a new tile bag. I just need dominoes now.
