For some reason, our office seems to have a box full of old board games. Though they seem to be of rather... questionable taste, a few still look like they could be fun.

Anyone up for a game?

I'd like to play.

(placeholder! shall pick up in a few hours. ♥ )

[defrestsinpeace]

Any of them look fun?

[athrowned]

They all do, but I'm curious about the Mouse Trap one.

How've you been, Ms. Fey?

[buffleheaded]

Clue Dungeons and Dragons?

[defrestsinpeace]

It's like regular Clue, but with a fantasy theme.

[buffleheaded]

They look like adventurers.

[defrestsinpeace]

Yes, I think that's the general idea.

[haphazardace]

... oh man. I think I've actually played the Grenada one before.

[defrestsinpeace]

I think that one's the oldest game in here. *Digs it out and hands the box over*

[haphazardace]

Yeahhh. From, what, the 50s or the 60s? My dad had a few old games from America ...

[defrestsinpeace]

Let's see... yes, the box says 1963. Did he collect them?

[touch_sensitive]

Ah! I wanna play!

[defrestsinpeace]

Wonderful! Any catch your interest?

[touch_sensitive]

Hm... ah... what's that 1313 Deadend Drive thing?

"A bluffing game where you should try to conceal your identity, as well as trying to reveal the others.
At your turn you are moving two of the characters on the board (could be yours and/or the others). The movement are decided by dice (you chose which dice you use for each character you chooses to move).

The game is won when either everyone is out of the mansion or when the last card (Clock Strikes Midnight) is drawn from the deck. You win by having the most moneybags (of the 20 available) of any of the players."

... where'd you find them?

[defrestsinpeace]

In a trunk in the back corner. I'm surprised we didn't notice it before now.

[badgrbadgrbadgr]

I didn't even know we had a trunk.

[defrestsinpeace]

We do now, apparently.
