As a followup to the list of games I own, I thought I would create a list of games I would like to own, or at least that I would like to learn more about. Some of the games I’ve played, other games I’ve only read about. Most of the games below have received some sort of award.

Now that I’ve created this list, I realize that not all of the above games are board games, because some are card games. However, none are computer games.
Before Christmas, I put on my wish list three games that I would want: Settlers of Catan, Skip-bo, Ticket to Ride, and Killer Bunnies. I’m happy to report that I went 4 of 4 on getting those games. It is especially great because the first of those games I received I purchased for myself, and then I got the other games from other people, without any repeats.
I really like playing games. I’m almost always up for learning or playing a new game, with perhaps the exception of Axis and Allies, which I understand to be a very long and complicated game.
I also go the chance to play many games over Christmas with Sandy and her family, as well as with my own family. The one game that I wanted to play but didn’t was Blokus, which I hope that I’ll be able to play before not too long.
Since I was so happy with all of my games which I’ve collected, I’ve created a list for your viewing pleasure.
