I had a game called Crazy Clock, the same premise as Mousetrap: a metal ball sets off a chain reaction. Anyone recall Tip It (or Tipit)? A plastic man balancing on his nose w/hoops in both hands. Players added discs on either side trying to make him fall.
Yes, I had both Tip It and Crazy Clock. 5 months til I turn 50, lol.  :D

Green Ghost...which is best when played in the near dark with the glow-in-the-dark board!
Which Witch
Monopoly
Life
The Barnabas Collins Game  (different from the Dark Shadows game)

Green Ghost and Feely Meely were a couple of my favorites.

dlhenderson

-Alfred Hitchcock's Why (still have the "haunted house board" and a few pieces)
-Candyland (found the 50's version of the board at a flea market)
-Monster Old Maid (years ago a friend surprised me with a good condition set as a birthday present; I had totally forgotten about it. She gave it to me in a restaurant and I made a bit of a "scene" with my sudden enthusiasm).
-I also liked Authors; something about those watercolor portraits appealed to the young artist in me.

Oops. Those last two weren't "board games".
Also played a lot of Scrabble and Monopoly, as well as Stratego.

It been years since I played board games as a kid, my memory is almost faded. however I still remember it.

Disney's Robin Hood (I did play this few times with my family, but don't remember how it was played anymore)
Stratego (played it couple times)
Scooby Doo and the Cyber Chase (couple times)
Mouse Trap (I actually just mess around with it instead)
Battleship (played couple times)
Monopoly (played couple times)
Clue (once or twice)

My grandma and grandpa used to have big collection of old board games, but now it got water damaged and grandma just throw them away anyway. I can't remember names of them, my mind is almost blank when I tried to think about them. I'm sure one is mummy game, tip it, two hockey stick games, and something else that I'm trying to figure out.
Collecting? It's what I do!
