Board Games are Life

My favorite question... What do you do for fun?  My eyes get wide and I get the biggest smile on my face... and I reply - "Board Games."  They always come back with - Board games? Like Monopoly?  Yes, I smile and say "Well, not really that but other stuff like Scythe... We are in the golden age of Board games."  You see comics and sci-fi things are in pop cultural.  Dungeon's and Dragon's is featured in main stream TV and movies. Basically,  I love board games... I play almost everyday.... it's my passion.

​"Board games are timeless and ageless," says Mills from Dark Cleo. "We've had granddads bring their eight-year-old grandsons to conventions, and they've both sat down and played a game together. I've been involved in several groups and societies, and you get a lot of people who suffer from social anxieties or even autism and other disabilities, but they're welcomed in. You've all got something to focus on, and the social side of it comes naturally".
​This open-armed ethos is certainly something to be lauded, and whether or not the skills you learn on the tabletop really do translate into life lessons, watching the groups of people playing "gateway games" at the London Games Market made me realize the simple of attraction of it all. As one Reddit user wrote: "I value board games more because playing a board game simply means I am with my friends." - VICE.com​​
