  • The Expert: You buy board games as often and as many as you can. You play them alone or with friends. It‘s your favorite hobby.

  • The Collector: You buy way too many games, but actually play only a handful of them.

  • The Hermit: Your prefered way of playing is playing alone.

  • The Specialist: You own a specific but small collection of games, carefully curated for every opportunity, heavy games included.

  • The Casual: You play from time to time with friends, enjoy it, but you are just getting started.

I want to get to know you better! Have I missed a kind of gamer here?

I would say I am a Specialist, maybe becoming a Collector.

We do not have so many games and enjoy playing the games we have as much as possible. It is our favorite hobby and we do not shy away from heavy games, in fact, we prefer a healthy mix of some easy to get into games and harder games.

We probably have something like 30 games. we thought about selling some but its almost more hassle than just keeping them around.
