Board Game Online

    It's a seemingly simple (since the board is just a straight line), exceedingly complex, ridiculously random and deliciously evil "board game."

    It's free, plays in your browser and you don't have to sign up for anything, although I would recommend creating an account so you can keep track of your achievements but you can play with or without an account.

    If you're a beginner, I'd recommend merchant or barbarian as a class. I'd recommend merchant regardless.

    Don't worry if you have no idea what's going on the first game. I didn't either and it was tons of fun. You'll start to get the hang of it after a few games. Just hover over stuff, read the text, watch the timer on your turn and pay attention to what's happening in the side panel. You'll see everyone's turn as you play so the first game might be a little confusing and you may not be sure when it's your turn but you'll figure it out.

    Here's a breakdown of the classes:

  2. I must say this game is quite entertaining... might want to recommend the age group that should play :)
  3. Well, although there are some PG-13+ references, I think it mostly depends on the people you're playing with.
