When did board games 'click' for you? (lemmy.world)

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

I grew up with the Ravensburger box of classics so, board games were always a part of my childhood. They quickly captured my imagination and I began to draw roll and move boards, explaining to my mom what should happen on each space.

When I got older the whole family got into games and that turned into a nice sunday tradition.

Eventually I got sucked into BGG and never financially recovered...
