I agree with Mike and Zee, Marvel United would have been a HUGE hit with my friends and I. From around 1987-1989, we played the TSR Marvel Super Heroes RPG and loved that. I was a huge comic book collector at this time, as were a couple of my friends. I'm not sure I would have liked the Chibi style, actually, I would have probably hated it immensely, but the game, we would have loved.

I played MtG right when it exploded with the Revised set. I was in high school and, yes, it was A M A Z I N G to collect and play with friends. Card lists existed in a few places, but each pack was a sense of discovery. We were always trying new combos and trading to make decks. It did define my hobby life for a few years. I've circled back to the game a few times over the decades, but nothing ever came close to the initial experience with all the free time in the world and not enough money to burn out.

There's a handful of games I played as a teenager that I still play now actually. For my list I didn't use them but rather other games similar I know I would've enjoyed. I actually have a few crossover with the guys. I didn't have a lot of friends either as a kid so I often played games with the adults and played what they did. 10. Dragon Castle - I played Mahjong as a kid with my family a lot. Still love it. This game gives me that tactile joy the sort of similar pieces. 9. Jamaica - I loved pirates and racing stuff. I'd race toy cars and ships as a kid. So this would've been a great racing game I know I'd have loved. 8. Klask - I loved table foosball and stuff like that. So this would've been a big hit. 7. Pirate King/Nyet - I played a lot of hearts and spades as a kid and teen. I'd even play other kids in high school for lunch money. I'd have preferred Pirate King, or Nyet, over something like the Crew because at that point I wouldn't have enjoyed co-op trick takers as much. 6. Arkham Horror LCG - So I did read Lovecraft books as a kid, and horror novels in general. I also loved RPG games. With that in mind this would've been my jam. 5. King of Tokyo - I loved Yahtzee as a kid and I was super happy it won the best of the worst heh. So take yahtzee and add monsters kicking each other's butts? Yes please. 4. X-Wing - I loved, and still love, Star Wars. All things Star Wars. I used to play those Ace Combat console games and enjoyed those aerial or ship battle games. This basically combines the 2 things to me. Now this pick also assumes I had money as a kid to afford all the ships for all the factions. 3. Star Wars Deck Builder/Marvel Legendary - I played a lot of MTG as a kid. Still have a bunch of my old cards. As I just said I love Star Wars. I also loved Marvel comics growing up. Ghost Rider still rocks. I'd have played the heck out of either of these as well. 2. Crokinole - Yes this existed back then technically, but I didn't know about it. This would've been hours of fun. I could've played this with my few friends or my family. 1. Gloomhaven (or Sleeping Gods) - I LOVED rpg games as a kid. I still do, but I don't have as much time. I do play D&D and I DM a group as well. I know Gloomhaven is a bit heavy, but I think with my love of rpg's and fantasy as a kid I could've handled it. I would've had no problem being the one to teach others either as I would've been so excited. I would've played this night and day solo or with friends. Sleeping Gods or Oathsworn would've worked as well as a big fantasy story driven game for me to obsess over as a kid.

I got the original Dark Tower as a teen in the 80's, in an unusual way. I was visiting a Boys Club with a friend who went regularly, and they had some carnival games going, which earned you tickets for completing. They had a variety of prizes you could redeem your tickets for (probably donated items). Dark Tower was some ridiculous number of tickets (I have no idea how many, but it seemed like it could take all day to get enough tickets to afford it), but I heard one of the workers tell someone that if they were short, they could simply use money as a replacement for tickets. I used some of the money I had brought to play the carnival games on Dark Tower instead, and went home extremely happy (I can't imagine I went with more than $10, so I'm guessing the game cost about $5). It was used, but it seemed like everything was in the box.

For solo play I'd likely have enjoyed Spirit Island even more than now. Solo strategy video games could never cut it since the AI was never good enough, so a board game I can setup where it would be a brutal battle for survival would have been perfect. As for group play Mechs vs Minions. Rolling dice to just move silly little metal tokens or plastic pieces around the board was all we had and it was horrid. Giving me a colored mech model for my piece and telling me to move around blowing away hordes of enemies is way better. Project Elite would likely fit this too but I've never gotten to play that.

For me: I tried to make each game a different style - I didn't want to full the list with multiple games of the same type. I also disqualified anything that required an app. Most of the games on this list would have been played solo as I lived a long way from my friends and didn't meet them often. 10 - One of my favourite computer games from my teenage years was Dungeon Keeper and Dungeon Keeper 2. So a game with the same theme would have attracted me. Boss Monster would have been higher, but it would rarely have been played since my friends didn't live near. 9 - I always liked Star Wars, and being able to hide the Alliance from the Imperials would have fascinated me. I would have painted all the models. Again Star Wars Rebellion would be higher if it could have been played solo. 8 - I would have played all the characters, tried multi-handing it, and I would have written several custom campaigns for Pathfinder Adventure Card Game. 7 - My dad really enjoyed Chess - he was a local grandmaster in his youth. So of course I never stood a chance against him. Tak is far simpler, but still very strategic. I expect he would have liked this. 6 - Another of my favourite computer games was the Commandos series. So being able to play a game in the same settings would have been great. (And yes I am still calling it V-Commandos rather than V-Sabotage. :) ) 5 - A lot of my childhood was spent reading, playing single-player computer games, and doing puzzles. Having the 7th Continent to explore and many puzzles to work out would have been amazing. 4 - A large campaign, lots of models to paint, and Star Wars? Sign-me up for Star Wars: Imperial Assault. Especially with the fan-made expansion that provides cards and rules to automate the Imperial player. Many other dungeon crawlers could be on this list - I have around a dozen of them on my shelves now, but this one wins for theme and gameplay. 3 - I played a lot of Yahtzee when I was a child, so a horror-themed game that is basically Yahtzee with a reason to roll? Yes please. Elder Sign is great. 2 - As previously mentioned: I loved reading and solving puzzles, plus exploration. Could Sleeping Gods not be on the list? 1 - My favourite book is The Lord Of The Rings. Most of the games I played as a child / teen used a deck of playing cards. Combining those two with being able to build your own deck? I no-doubt would have built dozens of decks for The Lord Of The Rings The Card Game and have completed all the missions on nightmare, which I have not had time to even complete them all on normal yet. I almost put Arkham Horror The Card Game here since the story is so much more prevalant in that game, but as much as I did like Horror, I had not at that time discovered Lovecraft's writings, so Tolkein's world wins out. 10 - Boss Monster 9 - Star Wars Rebellion 8 - Pathfinder Adventure Card Game 7 - Tak 6 - V-Commandos 5 - 7th Continent 4 - Star Wars Imperial Assault 3 - Elder Sign 2 - Sleeping Gods 1 - The Lord Of The Rings LCG

Batman: The Animated Series: Shadow of the Bat would've blown my mind as a teenager. The series came out when I was 13-14, and being able to play out the episodes on a board game would've blown my mind. It would've been my #1 and likely kicked HeroQuest to the curb. Both X-Wing, Imperial Assault, and Nemesis would also make my list. Similar to Batman, the X-Men cartoon started up early in my teenage years. So, I'd have loved to play a game that captured that. But, I don't that there's a game that would've captured that. I'd have probably wanted Marvel United, but I'd have likely repurposed the miniatures for use in a skirmish or dungeon crawler game after a few plays. I ended up cannibalizing a fair amount of board games as a teenager to create the kinds of games I wanted to play. Of the ones mentioned... - Masters of the Universe: Clash for Eternia would be high up on my list. - Nexus Ops would've been amazing (and why aren't there more games like this?) - Magic: The Gathering was one I was playing as a teenager and I loved it. I just wish I'd have had more money to spend on it.

Loved this Top 10. The theme. The three amigos. Just great. Yes I am also born in the 70s.

I think it’s interesting how many older games are on this list. I wonder if “modern” game design has left behind a certain simple/fun/toy element.

I was a teen when Heroscape came out and was what really got me into games, I just didn't have the money to buy them. I think I would only have 5 on my list though, I was pretty content with MTG, Heroscape and D&D at the time and my dad had a lot of 70s and 80s board games that we played sometimes so there was that, but these would've been really neat to have too. 5 Agricola, I really liked Harvest Moon and a board game that is about farming would have been great and I was kind of like Tom, I read rule books often, I knew games inside and out so this would've been really neat to have plus a game with no dice? What? How quaint. 4 Suburbia. I really liked Sim City as a teen and it's just a board game version of that video game. Plus I just like building stuff and money games as a teen. I was the master of Monopoly in my family, only my dad could beat me. 3 Hero Realms, I played a lot of MTG at that time and having a card game that you can build your deck as you play(my favorite part of magic btw) would have blown my mind. Plus you're fighting each other or even better do a campaign as you play would've have been super cool. Dominion could've made it for the deckbuilding slot, but I would've liked the fantasy theme way more as a teen instead of medieval Europe. 2 King of Tokyo, my dad and I love this game, I should have bought it years ago but pushed it off as a kid's game. It's amazing and I was somewhat into Godzilla as a teen, so making Kaijus fight each other would have been amazing. 1 Twilight Imperium. I know that the first and second editions were around when I was a kid, but I would've loved playing it as a teen. I already played a lot of Heroscape and D&D but to tell me that you could have a space civ and rule a galaxy that's not a computer game would've really been the icing on the cake and probably would've made me put all the other games I listed as well as any of the other ones away in the closet.

It's nice to see Tom's number 1 get respect, even after all those years. Top 5 game for me.
