ImUrOBGYN Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 Here's a card game that's also car people relevant. Been playing since I was kid and I've gotten many people addicted to it throughout the years; of all ages. Mille Bornes The premise of Mille Bornes is that the players are in a road race. Each race—or hand—is usually 700 miles (or kilometers) long, but the first player to complete that distance exactly has the option to declare an extension in which case the race becomes 1,000 miles. Mille Bornes is played with a special deck of cards. There are hazard, remedy, safety, and distance cards. Each hazard is corrected by a corresponding remedy, and is actually prevented from happening in the first place by a corresponding safety. The target distance is reached by playing distance cards. You can find it just about anywhere. Very fun game. Of course, there are the classic card games like UNO, Skip-Bo, Phase 10 (that's a good one), etc. We play alot of card and dice games rather than board games just due to space in the living room. 10,000 is a fun dice game not everyone is familiar with, too.

Rustlestiltskin Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 Monopoly n Risk. Those were the games me and my bros played back in the day. I'd play them now if I could find ppl who wanted to. Drunken risk/monopoly would be awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avenger1647545502 Posted March 9, 2012 Report Share Posted March 9, 2012 Glad somebody else likes Mille Bornes...that was a favorite of mine. Try playing "Cut-Throat Uno"...take four basic decks and throw away the number cards from one of them, leaving just the special cards for that deck. When you get a Draw card played on you, you can play your own and pass it along to the next person...who can do the same to the next, until somebody can't pass it along. If you get a bunch of people playing, it's likely some poor sucker is gonna get stuck with drawing 20+ cards! Skips can be played to pass the count along, but they don't increase the count beyond what you'd have had to draw...but they also work like normal, hitting the person beyond your neighbor.

01sentrase2.0 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 There was a store at Polaris called GO Games, and apparently they are no longer there. That is where we bought a lot of our games from. No idea where they went to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airwg2189 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 +1 for euchre, can be VERY fun if everyone knows how to play, and plays fast. Moreso with alcohol. Only downside is you need <multiple of 4> people to play, so 6/10 etc is a no go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEORedLS1 Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Just played a game tonight called Millie Bornes and it was a blast. You can find it on Amazon for 4-5 bucks. Its pretty cool how it works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
