Board and card games

[Rhubarbed]

Is there anywhere onboard where we can borrow board and card games?

Check the library. On the Glory in Feb., they had board games.

Decks of cards are given out at Guest Services and for purchase at the casino.

There are some games in the library, but, they are slim pickings, and may not be in the best of shape sorry to say...........:rolleyes:

In my carry around bag I keep a notepad with pen, 6 dice so I can play farkle or yahtzee, and a deck of cards

Our kids enjoyed the games, in the Library. We were told, we could buy cards for a $!, in the Casino.

If you got to front desk they will give them to you for free

Consider checking on your roll call to see if anyone likes board games. Our family travels with at least 4 games no matter where we go, we'd be happy to group play or loan if you happened to be on our cruise. Might be worth a shot.

It was the front desk that told me the Casino sells the cards for $1.00.

FYI: the casino decks which are $1 have no Jokers so if your game requires those cards, you are out of luck. I play hand and foot and would love to have a bunch of new decks for $1, but really need the jokers.

Hand & Foot: I thought our family members were the only ones who played this. My 90 yr old motheris addicted. Yes buying a bunch of "full" decks for a dollar would be sweet.

True! It's not fun to play games with pieces missing. :rolleyes:

Funny with all the stuff that folks pack in their suitcases you'd think it was pretty easy to throw in a deck of cards??

We bring our own travel backgammon board because we play all the time. There are lots of games available on board but sometimes pieces are missing.

We always take a deck of cards with us in our carryon bag. Nice to have on the ship but we mostly use when we are stuck in airports and find playing cards amusing.

I store these things in my carry-on so I always have them when I travel: Deck of cards, a couple of zip-lock bags, band-aids

TY. This is a great idea.

Just be aware that some hours for the library are slated for private group meetings. If you a set up for a game 15 minutes before a group is scheduled, you might get asked to leave.

 

Check the Fun Times for events in the Library.

I live in an apartment complex for folks over 55 and we have a mad game of hand and foot going on every day! She needs to be here!

We just got off the Imagination and the library was well-stocked with board games in very good condition.

 

The library is used for many private functions and we were somewhat annoyed that it was closed for these functions on 2 of the 4 evenings we were at sea and during the afternoon as well. On one evening, some board games were taken to the nearby piano bar for the passengers to play, but it was not a great place for board games as the tables were really small.

 

You might want to invest in a few small games (like Bananagrams) or travel-sized versions of games like Scrabble. My daughter won a travel-sized game at the Hasbro Game Show called "Boggle Slam" and it's a lot of fun too. We played these small games a lot on the Imagination cruise.

Just had to comment about the free/cheap deck of cards...way back when they used to hand them out as a perk, I think our steward left them in the room for us, it's been ages, so I'm not sure. We took a land vacation this summer, and decided to pack a few board games, and DH found a brand new pack of Carnival cards, still in the wrapper lol!

She would love it, my hubby & I play also- if we ever cruise together, we'll have to get a game going
