@rishabh An old edition (1980s) of Risk - it has been updated several times since then but the original is great!

@TheDimPause Thanks. Any other board games you would recommend?

@rishabh Over the last year or so we've been playing Ticket to Ride a lot and still haven't got bored of it. Also a bit of the tile laying game Carcassonne which we've had and enjoyed for a long time. Also, for a quick two player strategy buzz, Santorini has been quite good - as well as the old favourites chess, backgammon and Scrabble :)

@TheDimPause Thanks for sharing. Adding Ticket to Ride to my Board Games list.

@rishabh Ticket to Ride is very rad. I have two different versions and a couple of expansions. It should replace Monopoly as the game everyone owns a copy of.

@mdrockwell @rishabh Talisman is another great choice with enough players.

@mdrockwell @rishabh @TheDimPause if you get Ticket to Ride, I always recommend the 1912 expansion just for the proper sized cards instead of the mini cards that come in the box.
