^ Mousetrap was a favorite of mine.
Operation
Battleships was a game we played on pieces of paper when I was a kid.
Draughts and chess and then draughts again in Thailand, using stones or beer bottle tops, a great way to break the ice in the village.
Uckers was the usual game in the crew room.
I bought this lot for the bar, and Trivial Pursuit too:
All of the above.
Just bought a backgammon board.
This was my favourite as a kid... you have to travel around the UK on a train collecting tickets.
In fact I even brought it over to Korat to play with my daughter, but she seems to prefer playing interactive online Roblox with her classmates in the evening.
I don't know why.
I never tried this but it looks fun.
Anyone played it?
Monopoly, Buccaneer, Everest, Subbuteo.
That On The Buses has to be a collector's item now.
Chess has had a resurgence in our household recently after we watched the Queens Gambit on Netflix.
I even bought another Chess board so 1 person could play two persons.
Needless to say everyone has downloaded the chess apps so their friends are getting involved.
No chess for me when I start on the beer though, like you say it's heavy going.

We used to dream about nice soft dirt you could scratch pictures in... ours was baked hard like concrete.
We'd used all the sticks for firewood anyway.
My wife likes Twister also... but sadly not like that.
She's constantly saying that she's read such and such on Twister, or that the school has put out another message on Twister.
I don't know why but she just cannot say 'Twitter'. Is this a Thai thing or just my wife?
After years of saying, "It's not bloody Twister, it's Twitter!", I've given up. Now I just catch the daughter's eye and we have a little smirk at her mother's expense.
Who remembers Nightmare, that you played along to a VHS. It was supposed to be scary,
Lost Valley of the Dinosaurs - played it as a kid, and kept the game, now my youngest two love playing it.
