	Everyon who has hear of the game SHOULD get Pictionary, but there is a classic parlour game called "Dictionary" that also satisfies the clue.

	I tried "Go Fish" for "Risk". That totally works too, right?

	djpalac:	Jan 11th, 2013 at 17:15 GMT		53 points
	Think it would have been fun to have 'Uno' - nothing but an 'n' in the clue.

	eggnog:	Jan 11th, 2013 at 17:17 GMT		15 points
	I second Platypus222. Either Fish or Go Fish should be accepted.

	For all the Brits who complain about quizzes being too US focused, be aware that I never heard it called "Cluedo" until Sporcle, and whenever that game is on a Sporcle quiz, it's always given double billing ("Clue/Cluedo"). At least that answer is always Brit-friendly.

	Downfall is the only one I've never heard of. My family loves games!

	Never heard of quite a few of these, though I suspect there may be a US/UK difference for a couple of them. Despite that, I managed to get a few of them simply by working out what words would fit that letter combination, so I think for once this is a quiz anyone can have a good stab at, regardless of country.

	I invented a game called House Grab. Anyone think it sounds good?

	is candyland not one word?

	ChileNoseJam:	Jan 11th, 2013 at 19:03 GMT		20 points
	@Jennyfu: yes, it's the US name. I was disappointed to find that apparently there isn't a classic game called Uranium.

	I actually typed in 'Zorro' for 'Sorry' Board game, not swordgame...

	Cranium really seems out of place in a quiz of "classic" games. It was only created in 1998.

	jamboree:	Jan 11th, 2013 at 20:27 GMT		2 points
	Could have sworn the game was called strategy. Doh. If you do enough Sporkle games you soon learn chutes/snakes and ladders and Clue/Cluedo wherever you are from! I even remembered Candy Land! Yeh!

	singin185:	Jan 11th, 2013 at 22:52 GMT		4 points
	I've only seen Cluedo on Sporcle quizzes, and I'm curious how it's pronounced. Is it Clu-ay-doh or is it Clu-do?

	flyingfrogs:	Jan 12th, 2013 at 00:24 GMT		6 points
	@singin185 it's pronounced Clue-doh. Clue-ay-doh sounds like an interesting combination between Cluedo and Playdoh...

	Am I the only one who has never heard of "careers?"

	gamer2000:	Jan 12th, 2013 at 02:22 GMT		4 points
	Great Quiz! Did anyone else find themselves absentmindedly trying Google for Boggle, and Zenga for Jenga. Too much computer time??

	Uranium would be an awesome game

	Bobman1:	Jan 12th, 2013 at 04:45 GMT		8 points
	What, no porcl?

	mephelan:	Jan 12th, 2013 at 05:38 GMT		10 points
	Go should definitely be a bonus answer for this!

	mrmanheim:	Jan 12th, 2013 at 12:10 GMT		2 points
	got all. I never heard of careers, guess who or downfall, but all very easy to guess. I got cluedo only because I play sporcle... never heard of that term -- we alway s played clue.

	redsxfenway:	Jan 12th, 2013 at 15:48 GMT		3 points
	I was really hoping for "go" as an answer.

	etes97:	Jan 13th, 2013 at 00:49 GMT		1 point
	This is totally awesome! I feel like and idiot though because I missed Mouse Trap, of all games. That was one of my favorite games as a young child. Did anyone else find that game to be a childhood classic?

	Porrn? nope...

	all I could think of for the last one was "lousy crap"

	shakescene:	Jan 13th, 2013 at 04:25 GMT		3 points
	I spent part of my childhood (decades ago) on both sides of the Atlantic. Draughts and Snakes & Ladders is British for Checkers and Chutes & Ladders (respectively), while Clue is American for Cluedo. A popular British game was called Ludo. from the Latin for "I play" (I think it may resemble Bingo), so Cluedo was a natural coinage. The card game (although not the board game) Solitaire is more commonly called Patience in Britain. i i o is the American for ought n rosse .

	Xolotl123:	Jan 13th, 2013 at 15:47 GMT		3 points
	@shakescene Patience is only one variant of Solitaire. @mrmanheim, guess who is like 20 questions but with faces, and downfall is a 2 player game with discs that have to fall through dials, both were made by the same company.

	Battleship? They made that terrible Rhianna movie into a board game?

	glynndah:	Mar 17th, 2013 at 19:36 GMT		1 point
	Oh! I was really hoping it was pronounced Clue Dew. How disappointing!

	AJCham:	Apr 29th, 2013 at 16:08 GMT		1 point
	@Shakescene - actually Ludo is not like bingo. It's the British name for the game Americans call Parcheesi.
