The Boardgames Thread / Board games

Anyone ever played Rapscallion? I'm not usually a fan of card games but this one is really good. Nothing like turning the tv/laptop off, making a big plate of toast and playing boardgames with family/friends.

I haven't played this one, no. Do you count card games as boardgames? I know people do, but I usually don't. I must admit that like you I don't tend to look at them much (but always happy to find exceptionally good ones)--that's partly because in Germany there are so many of them. There seem to be three different category of game that have established themselves--the big family boardgames, small travel-sized games (often two-person games), and card games (often 'card versions' of big family-sized boardgames). I've played games of all three varieties and I've only really liked the first category.
