The enduring appeal of a classic game
A classic game has simple rules and a long life. Chess, darts, poker, mahjong and ring toss have all outlasted whatever was fashionable alongside them, and they do it without needing an update.
That simplicity is the point. There is nothing to set up, nothing to charge and nothing to subscribe to. You open the box and play.
Why classic games are still bought
- They are learned in minutes. The rules fit on one sheet, so a game can start the evening it arrives.
- They suit mixed ages. A ring toss or a quiz buzzer works with children and grandparents in the same room, which very little else does.
- They last. A wooden chess board or a weighted dart board is bought once. There is no version two.
- They get people talking. This is the actual reason most of these sell. A game is an excuse to sit down together.
- They travel. Magnetic and cased sets were made for holidays, trains and other people's houses.
Benefits of playing board games
Playing is exercise for your brain. It stimulates the areas responsible for memory formation and complex thought, at any age.
It also reduces stress and produces laughter, which is one of the ingredients of an enjoyable learning experience and of creativity.
And it opens people up. A board game is a way for quieter people to show a creative side without having to perform, which is a big part of why they keep coming back into fashion.
