For true gamers... Those that enjoy a good mental challenge when gaming. No roll-and-move only types (so no Monopoly or Sorry). No trivia based games (memorization and regurgitation of trivia is not a game). (Based on this "Backstreet Boys Around the World" wouldn't qualify.)
Games that you play for social interaction AND to challenge your mind. Games that reward you for playing well rather than playing lucky. Games that involve planning, strategy, cunning, and observation rather than knowing the name Ross' monkey or how to convey the word "dry." Games that interact with other players ("I bid 24 for Lite Metal" or "wood for sheep?") rather than wait for other players ("your turn" or "move already"). Games that include tough choices rather than rely solely on tough dice rolls. Games that make you think outside the box rather than be a box.
