Especially when you have kids. You realize that these “games” are extensively researched and tested to specifically addict kids...and, I guess, adults.

They are so effective that when one of my kids nearly got kicked out of school for not studying, I didn’t get mad, I just told him that it wasn’t his fault, because there is simply NO WAY a normal kid can fight these things off.

We have played Chess for thousands of years. It is a war game. Risk is a war game.

War is hell when you are in it and getting splattered by the brains of the guy beside you.

When you are playing it on board or screen it becomes an interesting puzzle.
