Your favorite lightweight game at the moment

Your favorite game of medium weight at the moment!

Your favorite heavyweight game at the moment!

Your most played game of all time!

Your favorite game of all time!

========== Here‘s my list:

King of Tokyo: Awesome art, great table presence, easy to learn, different winning conditions, always fun!
Tidal Blades: I love asymmetric RPGs with character customization! But I only got it to the table once. Time will tell if it holds up.
Arkham Horror LCG: My heaviest game atm, since I don’t find enough time for longer games. The most immersive game I played so far! I‘m impressed how this game is designed and I love my depressing roguelike experience with Lovecraft theme here!
Most played: Dominion.
World of Warcraft - The Board Game has to be my all time favorite: It reminds me of times, when we had opportunities almost monthly to get together and play these long games. Again, customizable asymmetric characters, thrilling item management and fighting mechanic, skill trees (expansion), everything I loved about the PC game was so well captured here.

              lightweight: Jungle Speed
medium: Battle for Rokugan
heavyweight: Terraforming Mars + Turmoil expansion (does it qualify as heavyweight? we do definitely consider it heavyweight because we need to plan when to play it beforehand based on how we feel that evening and available time)
most played: Jungle Speed, by a looong shot, it's stupidly funny and really easy to pick up for people who've never heard about it. I guess short party games are the undisputed winners in this category lol
