I think you nailed it from the armchair. My parents and my wife’s parents reminisce fondly about evenings spent playing cards and singing songs with their families growing up, and they’re sad that those things aren’t much a part of our culture any more (at least not in our small circle of the world). The other night though, my wife and I were playing Stardew Valley multiplayer with two of our young children and it hit me that we had basically organically stumbled upon family game night just from trying to do things that the kids were interested in as much as us that also involve some interaction with each other (as opposed to say, watching the same TV show next to each other).
