Glad I read the reply =P and I like the way you think, sir
XnFM
Holy shit. Key to the kingdom. My copy of that disappeared about 15 years ago.
almostlucy
My sister & I busted it out last year after a long time, & it was pretty fun. Having the Snake Key & you have to bring it to Pit of Vipers!
wrekwastaken
Mine was buried in a closet in my parent's house...my dad gave it to me like a year or so ago when they were doing some reorganizing.
Threadnomancer
Right? OP, did you buy yours back in the day or one of the 1000k ones?
wrekwastaken
Had it from back in the day
Threadnomancer
Lucky bastard. My folks still refuse to part with theirs and it sounds like I'll have to box my sister for it when it goes
pizzapartyhard
Oh my god key to the kingdom!!!!
TacoPrime
Mine is missing alot of pieces but reprinted out cards and have legos to replace missing ones to make it playable again

I checked, it wasn’t. Here’s what I was talking about: http://youtu.be/wC2QJa8olUk
katienicole007
I loved 13 Dead End Drive as a kid!
IWantAFunnyUserNameToo
It's great as an adult too, my friends and I made it a drinking game that when one of your characters dies, take a shot!
ThisOneKid
I've still got it somewhere around here
littlemirrorsatourfeet
Same! I only got to play it like twice because my parents hated it, but I loved it
MarkTwain007
That game was awesome but my sister and I broke a bunch of it so we sold it. I wish they still made it.
extremisttt
Yesss that sexy maid!!
JustADumbRename
I was the rich fat cat
EwokDude
That's one of the few games I didn't recognize on the shelf, what's it about?
Lukapaka
A rich old lady died and all her acquaintances convention and attempt to kill each other. Cops on the way, but last one standing gets the $$
MistoKat
There are booby traps set up (a la mousetrap) and you try not to get killed by them. It's great!
EwokDude
cool ty
NoxViator
Pandemic.... +1
theOPDoctor
Cthulu Pandemic will be the most frustrating fun you'll ever have
AnotherHunter
Get Pandemic Legacy
Vockstar
It’s good a couple times but it often ends up being the best / bossiest players makes decisions and others follow along
EmporerDragon
My group's experience is that if one person takes charge in a co-op game like Pandemic, it will usually end in a loss.
BoozinYooper
Just played that for the first time last weekend...its awesome.
OtterAvalanche
Now try contagion
EmporerDragon
For the collection's size, I'm surprised at how little overlap there is with mine. Here's a pic of mine:

funnybear88
Risk Legacy!
Ivellius
I don't think you have enough versions of Risk.
EmporerDragon
I know. I still need to get Castle, Europe, Transformers, GoT, LotR, 2210, Walking Dead, PvZ, Dr. Who, Metal Gear, Halo, and OT Star Wars.
Ivellius
Good luck with that. I do have LotR (Trilogy Edition, which is the only one worth having), 2210 A.D. and Star Wars.
art4fort
you win in my book with the dominion alone
Xenadon
It's funny because my collection is like 15 games and there's 30% overlap.
AAsilverfox
Have you ever played any of the “one night” games? There so much fun!
warriorofdiscord
Settlers. Good. With expansions? Great. Don't have my favorite but good job overall.
japuskey
What is your favorite expansion for Dominion? I have the core set plus Intrigue so far.
EmporerDragon
I can't really peg a favorite (we always use a complete mix for games), but Seaside should be the next expansion you should get.
wrekwastaken
That's perfect...we could borrow from each other
erelyes
Nice! What games from your collection would you recommend for people that have only played 'the usual' (monopoly, game of life, cluedo etc)?
wrekwastaken
Tsuro, Carcassonne and Ticket to Ride
EmporerDragon
Catan, Ticket to Ride, Forbidden Island, Exploding Kittens, & King of Tokyo would be my "gateway game" suggestions.
dreamingvividly
You’re missing Dominion!
Vockstar
wrekwastaken
Not a fan of Dominion. I get that it's important to the hobby...but it's kinda dry for my liking.
EmporerDragon
I find it plays a lot better once you get beyond the base game. Having a larger card pool makes for a much more varied and fun experience.
WhatsThis4
Good intro to deck building but better games once you're familiar with the mechanics - Legendary, DC, & Ascension are some of my favorites.
Vockstar
It’s better two player - flows through the turns faster
ktothearl
I'd disagree. It's better with 4 people that know what they're doing and no attack cards :P
BeautiPhil2190
I see Sheriff of Nottingham, I loved play testing that game!
ImAlreadyNakedUnderTheseClothes
Story time!
OperaBuffa
What a great game! I'd be curious to hear what play testing was like and how you got that opportunity!
143245or549
"Game design is playing a bad game 80% of the time..." - paraphrased Eric Lang. I've done 3 & agree. Right as its good, we switch projects.
BeautiPhil2190
Mutual friend invited me to his house, it was pretty laid back and chill to my surprise.The version I played SUCKED, and I’m really glad 1/2
BeautiPhil2190
They changed it. 5p game you had 6 carts each with a value(2-5), and in clockwise order from sheriff chose which one you wanted. 2/3
BeautiPhil2190
And no hand fixing, so if you had a crappy hand and were last to pick: you were screwed and sheriff was look no in your bag no matter what.
SomethingSomethingTraLaLa
A little over 100 games + average price of $30-60 = this is like $3k in board games minimum.

bumgurgle
Shut up you! Don’t you bring this hate on us! It’s a Hobbie not an addiction!
imposingelephant
That is exactly why I always ask for games and puzzles as presents.
trippypen8
I have easily spent at least 1k on a single board game #kingdom death monster.
Ivellius
If miniatures games count, I spent what I think was around 3k on Heroscape.
Roqinn
I counted 121 games.
SpaceTimer8032
My SO and I work at barnes and noble and he has a lot from when clearance goes to $2
akspartankiiier
Does he happen to have Spartacus that he wants to sell? I am in lone with that game
akspartankiiier
* love.
Ronin99
That's still a huge underestimation. Plenty of games (without any expansions) can run around 100-120 bucks.
SomethingSomethingTraLaLa
I know that for a fact, this is probably in excess of $6k fairly easily, $3k was my conservative estimate if they got some good discounts.
pandaparty031418
Must be nice
spoodfighter
Slightly over 100 games is reasonable. My coworker has over 700 board games. That's no longer in the realm of reasonable.
NoIdidntsayAbeLincolnIsaidHeyBlinkin
I just saw that trivial pursuit was originally sold for something like $70 in the 80s... & stores couldn't keep it in stock it sold so well
zombiekiller0
I spent $200 on a board game called Gloomhaven board games are not cheap its crazy
Meeces
but Gloomhaven owns, so you are ok.
OperaBuffa
Oh god I wanna play Gloomhaven so bad. Is it as good as the hype?
zombiekiller0
A lot of rules took me few days
Textuality
I've got four full shelves of rpg books. Probably about $5k worth of books.
SugarTitillates
I'll give ya about $20
TheGoldRhodiumEagle
My unused Steam library laughs in the face of £3k
theeldonscrolls
If only you could buy friends to play them all with
wrekwastaken
I know...having my collection stacked in my bedroom made me sick...it was then I realized I had an addiction
akspartankiiier
Do you have Spartacus?
kodiak931155
I have 120 games. Now I have a 1 in 1 out policy. My frienss whole basement is taken up with games. 1100+600 expansions
extremisttt
Two bucks tops at garage sales, four at goodwill. In case you want more... :)
DreadPierateRoberts
Ticket to ride!
iMcFly
Yeah same for me. I actually own games I’ve never played with others because it’s hard to get multiple people involved at the same time.
RaveningWendigo
Addiction or passion? It's a tough call sometimes. I too have a game tower. So much money
goldenchickenmaster
If you have a bit more to drop, the one night ultimate werewolf additions are super fun. Daybreak and vampire are my favorites
Grootsl
If my collection had a nice shelf to be stacked like that it too would make me sick.
almostlucy
Look into getting a rider on your insurance for the collection. I’m serious.
koda5300
Ever play munchkin? That's another good one, with many additional sets
akspartankiiier
He has like 5 different versions of it. Zoom in.
koda5300
Ahh, yup there they are, thank you
Arceus
What's a few good strategy games for 2 people? Looking to get some board games.
lestcore
Thumb wars
wrekwastaken
Patchwork is a 2 player game. Takenoko can be played up to 4, but my wife and I play it 2 player all the time.
MWTWB
neuroshima hex and qwirkle are my favorite for two players, though they can both be played by more than 2.
GodsFoot
I'll give you $26 dollar credit
ShentoSama
Double dollar credit?
xplodingwalnut
Too real
GrootGear
Gamestop is that you?
Thalarctos
As if. GameStop doesn't buy board games. Why invest in something timeless like that?
GrootGear
Gamestop would buy your liver if you are willing to take a $30 store credit for it.
OtterAvalanche
Whats the marvel game above small world in the bottom left
wrekwastaken
Marvel Legendary...it's a deck builder where you put together a super hero team to fight a super villian that's up to no good.
hepatitvsj
Legendary. A Marvel deckbuilding game. Highly recommended.
OtterAvalanche
Thank you! Will definitely look into it
JSGOTI
Consider yourself lucky that you didn't get sucked into KDM or Gloomhaven... some of my games are far, far too expensive. I have a problem.
TheMexican521
Gloomhaven is worth every penny though. You don't have a problem. We must be strong.
JSGOTI
The amount of playtime I've already gotten out 8f gloomhaven, and how much more there's still to play, it's more than worth the money
bigpapaike
MTG....
JSGOTI
Kicked my MTG habit... and picked up board games in its place. Not sure if the trade was worth it.
EmporerDragon
I'd say it is, when games like Smash Up or Dominion can scratch the CCG itch for a fraction of the cost.
zamielvanweber
I broke free of video games and CCGs! But Zamiel needs to feed Zamiel's game lust it seems.
TrueProphetFlareon
Something something 40k
allegedlynerdy
40k is only expensive if you make it expensive. I have 2 2000 pt armies which cost ~$1000.
JSGOTI
We don't speak that name here anymore.
