When did board games 'click' for you? (self.boardgames)

Has it been a consistent hobby since childhood or was there a single game, a mechanism, theme or social situation which hooked you in?

Playing Wingspan as we speak!! I was a huge bird nut growing up so that one was an instant pickup when I heard about it. I still even have a box of a ton of bird statues and pictures in storage.

I've been meaning to check out Cascadia, and I'll have to add Meadow to the list of potentials as well. Parks is another pretty fun nature one that we have, really cool art.

I do really enjoy Wingspan now, the artwork and production quality is a huge appeal, I also use the Wingsong app when my son's around, as he enjoys hearing the birds.

I love Cascadia, it's not deep and I feel I've maxed out my strategy, but it's such a pleasure to play, especially with non gamers.

I was looking at Parks last week, do you have either expansion? Was hoping for a big box, but there aren't any plans.

We do have one of the parks expansions (can't remember which one) but we still haven't had the chance to try it out.
