There are some really fantastic board/card/dice games out there that most people don't know about. So! I am here to inform you! -strikes superhero pose-
Arkham Horror Possibly my favorite. Set in the Lovecraft universe. Everyone has to work together to seal portals to other dimensions so the Ancient One doesn't awake and the town of Arkham/the world doesn't get dead. Super stressful but super engaging.
Quarriors! Addicting. Roll dice to gain "money" so you can buy monsters and spells to defeat your fellow players and gain glory points. While all of these games are chance-based to a point, and while in Arkham Horror you have less of a chance of doing well, Quarriors! is the most nerve-wracking when it comes to rolling your dice because you're pitted against everyone else, and a roll can make or break you.
Cutthroat Caverns This game makes me jittery lol. You and your fellow players have to fight 9 monsters and gain prestige points. However, only the person who lands the killing blow gains the points, so you're constantly screwing each other over to try to gain the points. Even if at the last monster encounter you have the most prestige points, your "teammates" can gang up to kill you, and then you lose everything. I love this game. There's literally a card where you trip someone to make them screw up. It's brilliant.
And there are lots and lots of other games out there! So go exploring!
Ok so I know I'm never on here, but whoever's reading this - listen to Globus! They're a band....kind of.....thing. Their music is like movie soundtracks with words. I mean some of them are literally sampled from movie soundtracks and then given lyrics. They're brilliant and you should all listen to them.
