[Quiet Man Cometh]

Never had Barrel of Monkeys or Pick-up Stix but my friends did. We had Mouse Trap but could never get it to work properly. I recall Kerplunk but never played. Most of these games I recognize but that might be age talking ;). I still have Jenga, though nowadays most of the time I play Trivial Pursuit or Sequence with my step-family. The other games I play with my brother and friends. He's something of a board game nut so we have piles of stuff, though mostly newer things.

Trouble was always fun, probably because we got to poke the dice roller bubble in the middle. Some childhood favourites of mine that I remember now were Hungry Hungry Hippos (gotta love a game where the point was to essentially mash a lever as fast as you could. Noisy as hell though) and this little fishing game where these fish with funny teeth would hover up and down and you had your rod with a little ball on the end that you tried to catch the fish with. Loved that thing.
