Fun And Serious Games, Different Types For Different People.

For some they really enjoy the large group fun games, but the focused and serious games are not for them. What type of games do you like to play?

I come from a very large family and we love to play games. I have some brother-in-laws that didn't grow up playing games and so it is like pulling teeth to get them to play games with us. There are certain games that we are pretty sure we can get them to play with us and then there are those that we know for sure they won't even consider playing with us.

When we sit down and play a big group game where everyone is laughing and it's a relaxed setting they will join us. They like the laughing and the poking fun of each other. It can get really fun when you have twenty adults playing together. As long as we are playing these types of games they will join us.

Then there are a couple of games that a few of us love to play and they are much more of a serious game. With these few serious games it is quiet and thought out and no one is helping each other. It is more technical and down to a few players. We love the serious games, but we definitely find that it is easier to play the serious games when the children are quieter and there are no distractions.

One of my brother-in-laws says that he doesn't like sitting and playing in the group setting, but has found that he loves playing more focused on his computer.
