Importance of playing games


When its time for entertainment, in early years people prefer to play board games like Chess, Scrabble, Monopoly and others. Board games would have been an important part of the social interaction of those times. An excuse to get together, and structure the nights social activity around the playing of the games. The fact is that the slower paced board games would allow for conversation, and more personal interaction, then a video game, which is more demanding of peoples attentions.
People today are addicted with digital video gaming. Almost anyone can play chess or any board game for that matter via their cellular phones and other portable gadgets. The convenience of playing a chess match against your friend miles away is something that we owe to technology.
But along with these conveniences, there are also some setbacks. One of which is that playing actual games brings a certain interaction that can never be found in video games. Moreover, they strengthen family ties and it brings about a friendly atmosphere for closure.
