What’s your favorite game (card, board, video, etc.)? Why? – A fun question today from the Daily Writing prompt.

Being a bit older I grew up playing board games. Chess, Risk, Scrabble, Monopoly, Sorry, Trivial Pursuit. I never got into video games much. I played a little with my children when they were young but that was decades ago and I couldn’t remember a name of a game.

I just remembered something fun from my youth I haven’t thought about in a long time. The game of speed chess. For some reason, I always played stronger at the speed version.

My favorite game is Ping Pong. We played endlessly as kids. As I got into my teens I got into pool for a few years.

Now that my grandchildren are getting older, I’ll be spending a few more minutes with some board games. Or learning the new video games. I probably won’t have to fake being bad at it.

In another year or two I’ll be setting up the ping pong table again for the grandchildren.
