Board games not intended for people with SA

[FoXTAiL]

I remember in 9th grade, we had to play the game "Gestures", thats got to be the worse board game for people suffering from SA in my opinion because it involves all types of group interactions and acting out, trust me, I hate acting.

So what board games do you think is not best for SA folks?

There's this game called Moods. You get a phrase - could be anything- like "Did you bring the trash outside?" and you also get a mood that you have to act the phrase in..like bored, hyper, cheery, suspicious. If you don't like to act, you wouldn't like this one. I only play it with my little cousins because they are the only ones I feel comfortable withdoing so and they are the only people who think I am a good actress.

Well I'd say Twister is one to avoid and any of those video games where you sing along, but then I think everyone should avoid them SA or not.

Oh I dunno, seems to me like Twister is the one opportunity we SA'ers have to get lucky (I'm just kidding). There's this one board game that really sucks - Cranium. You have to express yourself in different ways depending on the question. You have to draw, sculpt, act, and probably dance on your head while juggling pineapples. Man, I hated that game. There's nothing worse than having to be creative in multiple ways in front of people.

Chess is the only good one. Although I really hate losing, so it can be a source of anxiety as well

From my younger days:

Pass the parcel- the music stops when the parcel is in your hand, and you're the centre of attention as you unwrap it, desperately trying to look happy/ relaxed.
