Types of Board Game

[Under this header text, the comic contains 8 panels. Each of them is labeled at the top with a short description of the board game being played and features (from left to right) Cueball, Ponytail, Megan, and White Hat sitting on chairs around a table trying to play it.]

Boring Megan: Each turn, roll a die and move your token. Turns proceed clockwise around the table until we get bored and go home.

Abstract Cueball: Each turn, you can place any number of red triangles or blue squares on a hexagon, or move any hexagon to a...

Hyperspecific Theme Ponytail: It's October 2, 1814. The Congress of Vienna convenes. You are each in charge of distributing and lighting candles for the opening ball, which was held at these three locations...

Overcomplicated White Hat: It's a cross between *Twilight Imperium* and *Cones of Dunshire,* but implemented entirely in category theory. Every cone is a monad, and...

Cooperative Megan: We're working together to sort these decks of cards using only hand gestures. After that, we'll silently organize my junk drawer.

Branded Cueball: You can play as Phoebe, Chandler, Monica, Rachel, Ross, Joey, or, due to an ill-advised tie-in, Goku.

Party Ponytail: Each of the cards in your hand has a bad word on it. On the count of three, yell the...

Social Deduction Megan: Remember, per our *Find the Secret Murderer* house rules from last week, discovering that a player had committed a real-life murder does *not* count.

me when i explain a board game to my friends but i haven't played it in like a year

It's very apparent that "board games" can mean very different things to different people when one game feels the need to warn you that it can take up to thirty minutes to play, while another prides itself on being "quick playing" on the basis that a minimal two-player game should only take two to three hours.

Invisible Chessboard & Board Games - for The Sims 2

I made an invisible chessboard as a new object (not default) so your sims can "pretend" playing multiple games.

It looks like an OMSP with an invisible recolor. The arrows will help you place the two chairs correctly.

First, place it on the ground together with two chairs. After they slide into position, you can place one of the deco board games I converted (or any other deco board you already have in your game) on a table of your choice. Then place the table on the square and voilà! Even the chess pieces will be invisible.

You can find the deco games under Hobby-Miscellaneous. I also converted some of the game boxes. The invisible chessboard can be found in the same category as the original chessboard.

Board games are from Aroundthesims, low poly.
