 While it would be easy to find someone to play the most famous games, my favorite game is Hanafuda Koi Koi (a Japanese card game), and I'm sure it would be extremely hard to find people interested in playing it. I bought a specific game on Steam named Koi Koi Japan, so I can play it against the computer and hopefully find some online matches too.

 

I think I've seen the Korean version called 'matgo' where old people usually play it with a little gamble.

Yeah, I remember that Pokemon and Yu-Gi-Oh cards were very popular up until middle school.

 

I guess if we're talking about Canadian board games, Trivial Pursuit would probably be one of the most well known. It's basically a trivia game with different categories.

 

Personally, my favourite game is called Avalon. It's kind of a mix between Mafia and Werewolf.

 

Aside from that, I also enjoy playing Settlers of Catan, Risk and Monopoly. 

 

Also, not sure if this is what you were asking but if you're looking for online games, I really enjoy this game called skribbl.io. It's basically a game where someone draws and other people have to guess what you're drawing.

You like the “long game” clearly :p

Yes, when I was little I was playing Pokemon all day, both TCG and video game (we are talking about 1998-2001, around that time). 

 

I think I still have a deck somewhere, even some of those promotional cards that were given by buying other stuff or going to events.

I still keep 2 big boxes in my house: one for YGO and one for Pokemon.

 

 

Btw, I realized I also played the Japanese Arcade TCG where you involve animals to fight ranging from beetles (Mushiking), dinosaurs (Dinosaur King), and just a bunch of wild animals (Animal Kaiser)

Yu-Gi-Oh never really broke through here I think, at least not in my school :p Pokémon all the way, and I loved Digimon and Dragonball Z as well but we didn't really have cards or something for that (I think I have maybe 4-5 of DBZ but no idea how I got them).

    • Yes, he is ones of the first supporters of Milei, owner of one of the most important stock market of Argentina (Bull market), he was peronist and for "unknown reasons" start to be libertarian.   Even being libertarian in my case, i have to admit that him is one of the dumbest of "Milei supporters" and a clown when  he is in TV, he made me feel  embarrassed in many occasions.   Camila Giorgi being with him is.......inconceivable.
    • Ya but the replacement is Pat Bondi, a choice that is only better in so far as Pat Bondi isn't credibly accused of having had sex with multiple underaged girls.   Also, you might recognize this name: Pete Hoekstra has been nominated to be the US ambasador to Canada.
    • Camila Giorgi has a new BF Ramiro Marra. Apparently he's some politician/journalist from Argentina. One of Milei's supporters dare I say? @LDOG@konig            
    • Skeleton Tour moves on to Yanqing  this weekend.  Asian Cup races tomorrow, then the World Cup on Saturday, and then possibly more Asian Cup next weekend before everyone moves over to Altenberg for the start of the full Skeleton / Bobsleigh tour again. 
    • 2-1.   But it's good to have a great champion in the squad. I've been waiting for this my whole life. I wish we had such stars in every sport.
    • But he beat Mouat, who seems to be almost unbeatable 
    • Argentina has a really solid lineup, especially if they have prepared seriously for this event. Of course they don't have a champion like we do, but in this format it is enough to win 1 match to play the decisive doubles.
    • Today we must to beat Argentina. It looks like Sinner will have to win all the singles and doubles for us to defend the title. So far, the 2nd and 3rd favorites before the tournament have already been eliminated: Esp and USA.
