When I did granny duty for 3 hours, 4 days a week, we (four) regularly played Scrabble and Monopoly.(that was 13 yrs ago)
I still have the Monopoly set.

As a child, during the pre TV age, my brother and I had a suitcase full of board games.
My favourite was 'Rich Uncle' - based on stock and share dealing.
My brother's favourite was Battleship'.
There was a card game we both liked, named Contraband, which involved smuggling the crown jewels and nylon stockings etc through customs.
