Foosball, also called baby-foot, is generally played by two to four players. Each side controls four lines of stick-men that can rotate at will as well as move horizontally, up to a certain limit. A small ball is placed in the middle of the table, which is usually designed to emulate a soccer field.

The objective is to manipulate the ball using these players to score the ball in the opponent goal, while simultaneously defending your goal from being scored on.

The objective is to bounce the ball on the opponent's side of the table. If it bounces more than once or cannot be returned, the point is declared for the winner and a new point is played until the game is over.

The game can be played by as little as two and as many as one thousand people (theoretically). One person thinks of a word or phrase and draws a noose after revealing the number of letters in the word or phrase (usually by drawing small lines to indicates the number of letters in each word). Participants then take turns guessing letters to fill in the phrase.

When a letter is not present, it is written down next to the noose, and a hangman starts to get drawn. The objective of the game is to guess the word or phrase before the picture of the hangman is completed.

It is a highly social game, with an entire table of players usually betting on similar outcomes, and one shooter (who is also betting) throwing the dice across the table hoping to help everyone beat the house (which is always impossible in the long run).

Monopoly is one of the most popular board games on Earth; the objective of the game is to be the only one with any money or property left, bankrupting other players. Dice rolls determine movement during the gameplay, perhaps illustrating the impact that luck can have on wealth accumulation in real life, which was the original developer's goal behind creating the game. Buying properties and developing them with the hopes of collecting exorbitant rent from other players is the goal of the game. Many games can end up stalemated and take hours to complete, if not abandoned altogether.

The board game is an excellent mix of strategy, luck, and cooperation. In standard variants, four players compete to develop and expand their initial settlements while cooperating if another player is too far ahead - progress is exponential in "Catan", and strong starts must be punished severely by the other three players to ensure they have even a small chance at success. Only one winner can be crowned after receiving 10 "Victory Points" through various means.

Risk, almost marketed as "Risk: Global Domination" is a strategy and cooperation board game that can be played by 2-6 players. The Earth is divided into territories, with each player receiving armies that they can assign to corresponding territories. In classic variants of the game, the objective is to dominate the world by capturing all the territories and effectively eliminating all other players from the game.

The classic variant can take a particularly long time, especially if stalemate occurs and troop counts are very high for many players, creating a military standoff.

As a result, many Risk board games come with alternative game play modes to shorten game time and increase the fun.
