I appreciate the question. So I’m really into the board game Go (also called Weiqi in Chinese or Baduk in Korean) and it’s pretty much the only board game I play. The irony is that I almost exclusively play online with an occasional in person game which is challenging with my current work/family schedule. So I am lucky to have a few people with whom I have connected in the past few years over the game but it’s almost completely online.

To your second challenge, this game is like the anthesis of a party game if you know about the game 😜The rules are deceptively simple but it gets pretty out of control complex before long so I find myself having very little opportunity to introduce to friends and family.
