I watched this thread's views after my last post here, and they increased more than I had expected. So, readers,
when you're checking out a new post here, what is it you think you might find that would be of interest to you?

I personally am not that interested in board games. I just check it out of curiosity.

I used to play board games regularly. I check to see if anything here that I can play with my kids that my wife would approve of (which is just about non-existent).

Try Rummycub. It's quick, strategic, and fun.

What sort of thing might you be looking for and what does your wife require it not to have?
(You seem to imply a disparity between your own standards of acceptability and hers...?)

Sure there is. I grew up in a house where it was fine to play whatever provided tznius and language were not a problem. In contrast, if my wife feels that it is goyish, she doesn't like it. Even if she tolerates it, I try not to (deliberately) mess with her feelings.
What's left? Stratego without faces, chess/checkers, Rummycub, Uno, Perpetual Commotion, Bananagrams ... you get the idea, not much. Plus the Jewish brand games (knockoff or no).
