Perhaps the first thing that comes to mind for most phrase "Games." Thanks to the efforts of marketers "monopoly" is actually the most famous board game. But as far as board games are not limited monopoly - and quite the contrary - most modern board games significantly exceeds it in its depth, interest, excitement, and so forth. In most modern games participant can not retire from the game before it ended due to lack of play money (as in Monopoly), or for any other. Also, you will not be tedious to sit while waiting his turn while others are doing it - there is a game where players move is made at the same time (such as in the best board game of 2011 - "7 Wonders") in the other games, this time to a minimum - and even it is used to good use by each player (to think about strategy and other actions). Modern games almost do not rely on luck of hitting the numbers on the dice (in most games he basically absent) you win or not, depends more on your talents, sound strategy, to some extent, luck, dexterity (for some games), public speaking, and so forth. It all depends on the game you're playing. About different types of games will be discussed later in the article.
