PROMPT: Game

Posted on July 19, 2025 by B Gourley

Daily writing prompt

What’s your favorite game (card, board, video, etc.)? Why?

I go through periods of playing chess on my phone. I guess I enjoy that as much as anything. It’s a fine time pass. Though I’m not any good. If one were to go by what I do reasonably well, that would be more word puzzles or Scrabble — things that rely upon verbal skills. I’ve never been big on games of any variety.

  So few activities where a big vocabulary is of true benefit.

  I play cards and dice games now and again, when with people who enjoy them.

  Given that you can play against any level, it works for people far more adept than I. I think I heard Magnus Carlson say he could no longer reliably beat his phone (if unhandicapped.)
