A board game is a tabletop game that involves counters or pieces moved or placed on a pre-marked surface or "board", according to a set of rules. Games can be based on pure strategy, chance (e.g., rolling dice), or a mixture of the two, and usually have a goal that a player aims to achieve. Early board games represented a battle between two armies, and most modern board games are still based on defeating opposing players in terms of counters, winning position, or accrual of points (often expressed as in-game currency).
There are many varieties of board games. Their representation of real-life situations can range from having no inherent theme (e.g., checkers), to having a specific theme and narrative (e.g., Cluedo). Rules can range from the very simple (e.g., Tic-tac-toe), to those describing a game universe in great detail (e.g., Dungeons & Dragons) – although most of the latter are role-playing games where the board is secondary to the game, serving to help visualize the game scenario.

Brief explanation: All players are dealt 4 cards, leaving 3 cards that nobody has: a suspect, a weapon, and a room. Players must go to different rooms and make suggestions to figure out which cards were not dealt. The player who correctly guesses those cards, wins the game.

What do I say when I'm late and she knows it, too? I make up a dumb excuse. Is this time for real? Hey, what's the big deal? It was just a birthday, that's all. Been sent to jail without passing go. It's my last card and I forgot to call uno. So I climb and climb and won't stop 'till I reach the top. This ladder doesn't seem to end. Is this time for real? Hey what's the big deal? It was just a board game, that's all. Been sent to jail without passing go. It's my last card and I forgot to call uno.
