Here are the nine boardgames that I played more than thrice during 2016. The year’s total was 87 different games.
- Keltis (2008, travel version, very handy, and Cousin E loves its mathiness)
- Sechs nimmt / Category 5 (1994)
- Deception: Murder in Hong Kong (2014, like Clue + Werewolf) *
- Heimlich & Co. (1984) *
- Taluva (2006) *
- Blokus (2000)
- Carolus Magnus (2000) *
- Qwirkle (2006)
- Telestrations (2009) *
These are mostly short games that you can play repeatedly in one evening. Taluva and Carolus Magnus are a bit longer. A long game that I played thrice was Glory to Rome. All are highly recommended!
