Don't worry, BSG is a terrible show. That doesn't preclude the board game from being good, though. I'll need to try it and GoT.

It really is quite fun in its simplicity. After devoting so much time and energy to learning the many ins and outs of magic, it is nice to just...you know, take your turn, then sit back and let your opponent take their turn.

It really is. There's even an online version of some sort nowadays, I believe. I don't know much about it.

guillotine is a very fun game. I enjoyed it immensely. I think clue ends up being really boring like 60% of the time.
