I've been meaning to get better at Go. It's fun, but man do I not have the pattern recognition skills needed to play it well. It is a work in progress.

love letter is such a good game. It's an instant hit with friends and gamily when we need something fast to learn but fun to play.

light : No Thanks!

medium : Catan, oddly enough.

Heavy : Shasn

Most played: Probably Talisman. Me and my wife played that a lot when we were getting together

Favorite of all time: Probably still Shasn, but if I can count civ5/civ6 as a board game that gets pretty close.

However I am a bit of a game omnivore that jumps from one game to the next, so I go through phases with what games are "in" at the moment and try new games frequentlt. My wife is the opposite, preferring what she knows and a solid set of few good games. As such we make a good team in blending variety and avoiding our board game shelf growing too quickly.

I feel that given the current trendyness of AI and large language models it seems prudent to mention Façade, an interactive play that used AI and language processing to let the player "speak" to the characters and influence tha narrative. It was very janky and you could break it rather easily, but the concept was solid - the technology was just a decade and a half away.

I'm Icelandic. The water is potable straight from the tap: no filtration or boiling required, albeit the hot water may smell a bit of sulfur due to being heated with geothermal energy.
