Not video games but this seemed the most appropriate place for a thread like this. I'd love to hear of any new games or favorites. I started this because I know people have talked about some games but now that I'm looking, I can't find them.

My current wishlist:
Betrayal at House on the Hill (bought)
Settlers of Catan
Ticket to Ride
Cards Against Humanity
Exploding Kittens

I accidentally stumbled on Exploding Kittens and it made me wonder what other amazingness I am missing out on. :)
A lesson without pain is meaningless. That's because no one can gain without sacrificing something. But by enduring that pain and overcoming it, he shall obtain a powerful, unmatched heart. A fullmetal heart.

Apples to Apples is one of my top faves, and I want to try Gloom, Once Upon a Time, and Let's Kill.

Cards against humanity is the gift that keeps on giving. I reccomend getting the expansions and the bigger blacker box for it though.

The guy who made this game is doing a kickstarter for a werewolf/mafia style game called secret Hitler that I think is worth checking out.

Another on my list is Magic: Arena of the Planeswalkers, which is included in the game sale at amazon but I gave it as a Christmas suggestion.

I saw your post about that one the other day. It looks really cool. I showed my son the video for that one, but exploding kittens seemed to be the bigger hit between my two.

Yeah there are several strategy games on sale right now but I'm not really familiar with them.

Munchkin is a fun spoof on games like d+d with a lot of variant editions.

Fluxx is a fun card game which can be a little confusing but once you get the rules the game is fast and fun.

I just saw Survivor Outwit Outlast Game on Amazon. It's probably lame, but the Mafia/Werewolf game sounds cool. Also Murder Mystery Party - A Taste for Wine and Murder.

Also love Apples to Apples and Scattegories.

CAH is a must.

I saw Game of Thrones and Walking Dead themed Risk games the other day.

I love board games! I play with friends like every week. In particular some smaller card games like Wizard, but also some board games. With large groups we play Werewolves and Resistance (similar to Avalon).

One of my favorites is Arkham Horror. It takes like 2-4 hours but so much fun! I love coop games in general.

I also recommend Nosferatu, it's werewolves/mafia-esque, but more fun imo.

Killer bunnies is hands down the greatest card game ever. Has anyone ever played it?
"So, uh, what are we saying here? If we save LA from a nuclear bomb, then you and I can get together for dinner and a movie?"
