The Best-Loved Games
We all enjoy our favorite family games, perhaps one of the popular ones like backgammon, in which only the basics matter. What is astonishing is how many recreational games have not just survived, but have increased in popularity too. Here are some of the hot titles riding the popularity waves in many hotel lounges around the country:
- Poker – Poker evolved from either the French game of Poque or the Persian game As-Nas. Learning the rules of poker isn’t very difficult. Poker remains the most popular card game in the world. Whether at casino level or for a sociable evening among family and friends, Poker is a recreational game of skill and cunning.
- Chess – the board game of chess, with its black and white pieces warring over a black and whiteboard, has been around for centuries. Using skill to outwit the other side, the game is over when the first player shouts ‘checkmate’ once the opposing king is cornered. There are also many strategies to beat your opponent in a luxury game of chess.
- Tic Tac Toe – This enticing game never ceases to inspire contestants to play over and over. Tic tac toe used to be a paper and pencil game, but these days, beautifully colored boards are the rave. This will add to the fun and excitement of one of the all-time favorite games.
The Magic of Backgammon
Backgammon is another old favorite from the world of recreational games. It has been around since the era of the Pharos. Have your thinking cap with you if you plan to get involved in this crafty board game of strategy and luck. The best backgammon strategy rests within the player. Ultimately, it is all down to the roll of the dice!
