  Board game - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A board game is any game played on a board (that is, a premarked surface) with counters or pieces that are placed on, removed from, or moved across the board.
Board games first became widely popular among the general population early in the 20th century when the rise of the middle class with disposable income and leisure time made them a receptive audience to such games.
Although many board games have a jargon all their own, there is a generalized terminology to describe concepts applicable to basic game mechanics and attributes common to nearly all board games.

 The Morning News - The 2005 Good Gift Games, by Matthew Baldwin
Modern board games are created with adults in mind, especially designed to encourage interaction and friendly competition (i.e., the kind that doesn’t end when a player responds to losing Kamchatka by flinging the Risk board across the room).
The common problem with race games is that the winner is often obvious long before the contest ends, leaving players to glumly carry out their final turns without a hope in hell of winning.
Trading games typically don’t work with only two players—after all, you have only one person to negotiate with, and any deal your opponent extends or accepts is likely to be bad for you in the long run.
