My only quibble is why the accursed Monopoly is an option under serious consideration.

I truly hope it was used as a hypothetical because everyone knows it x)

My only thought would be timing of turns in games, bc one person could hold up two games taking a long time. Otherwise this game sounds fun as hell. Also, I would love to teach them to play Telestrations because that game only gets better the more people who play it! The idea is simple: everyone has a notepad and pencil, everyone starts with a simple phrase like "duck in a pond", and the next person writes what they see, then the next person draws what they read, with no one ever looking backward for context. You get some magically unhinged stories unfolding (and yes, it is a riff on the old Telephone game of whispering into each other's ears).
