I’m not sure what your favourites were but I had a mean love affair with playing Hangman and staring at the Sleestak on the “Land of the Lost” board…..

I loved board games as a kid… There weren't any affordable home video games yet so you got board games made of your arcade favorites… I had Pac-Man and Donkey Kong board games…

My brother is a boardgame collector. Still playing Land of the Lost and Bermuda Triangle currently, they haven't lost their appeal

Oh, wow, I haven't thought about Sub Search in years! It was like a tri-level Battleship, and I believe there were different-colored pegs for "near misses". We kept the pegs in one of those plastic margarine containers. Who had any of those in the '70s? Wait, let me rephrase that…Who had several dozen of those in the '70s?…..;)
