The Last Board Game On Earth

[jubosu]

The Italian games where you move rocks through the board
Dont remember the names

I think it would be really amazing to get a bunch of post atomic war survivors to actually sit down to play any board game, the loser is lunch since you know cannibalism will rise in that time.

Chess, neither easy nor simple, but people will find a way to play it, I promise you.

Go.

Great ninja strike. If nothing else, Go will survive the apocalypse. Chess and Checkers might too but it's a guarantee Go will live on.

I was thinking that go might work, but I don't know, cause the pieces seem like a ***** to get that round.

but Go is definitely a candidate.

Why would the piece have to be round? You could use any black and white stones of appropriate size.

You don't really need round pieces. You just need a bunch of similarly sized pieces in two colours.

Jumunjie and zathura.

Something tells me that neither of these two games will survive another 20 years let alone after the apocalypse.

well all the raw resources from the games would help you survive.

Mancala. It's easy to make a makeshift version of it and actually pretty fun.

CLUE! Because everyone enjoys a good murder mystery.

I would say Axis&Allies but rule 3 takes that out, so chess
