I remember drawing a game pattern on the floor, to play a local game similar to Ludo. In place of dice, we used cleaned and dried palm seeds which had been “passed through” the numerous civets that used to live around our neighbourhood! There were other games too, which could be played on a pattern or “board” drawn on the ground, with pebbles or broken glass bangles as pieces. We even used to play (non-violent!) games with small stones, a couple of sticks…

Apples to Apples Junior is so much better than Apples to Apples!!! Half of the Apples to Apples cards are actors that no one knows about. Apples to Apples Junior has cards that people actually know about.
Happy new year my comment section fam! Did you guys make any resolutions? I resolve to stop replaying old vines in my head instead of doing actual thinking.
I went to a new years party last night and we played a game called ‘codenames’. It was a lot of fun and a good party game. Maybe Nate should try playing that.

You have a very “gamey” reputation, Nate.

I doubt children know of these games nowadays.

(Nate, Francis and Teddy rummage around in Dad’s closet)
Nate: Maybe my dad has a game that we can play…
Teddy: Hey, what’s this? (Pulls out a little black box) This looks like a game.
Nate: “Cards Against Humanity?” Never heard of it.

3 dominoes – 3 boys. Each draws and High domino wins. Shuffle, do it again.

I can see the headline now: boys get bored to death because nate probably has like one card in that box.
