It's remarkable to me how complex board games, like our society at large, have become over the past few decades. And the messages that are conveyed by the games. We assume the current state as "normal" but actually points to the remarkable progress of our society. I'm playing "Chutes and Ladders" with my four year old, which is a direct derivation of a popular ancient Indian board game. And I love the title of the Soviet game mentioned: "Tuberculosis: A Proletarian Disease, Look After Your Health! The New Hygiene Game"
