Few board games have stood the test of time, like Sorry!, the Parker Brothers (now Hasbro) classic that’s been causing cheers, groans, and family drama since its U.S. debut in 1934. Based loosely on the ancient Indian game Pachisi, Sorry! Blends simple mechanics with cutthroat twists that make it a staple in family game collections—and a source of playful vengeance at kitchen tables everywhere.
Overview:
Sorry! is a 2-4 player game where each player controls four pawns of a single color. The objective is to move all four pawns from your start zone to your home space by drawing cards and following their instructions. Sounds easy. Well, not so fast.
The real fun—and frustration—comes from the titular "Sorry!" card, which allows you to bump an opponent’s pawn back to their start while placing one of your own in their spot. Combine that with cards that let you split movement between pawns, move backward, or leap ahead, and you’ve got a game that encourages both strategy and spite in equal measure.
Part of the charm of Sorry! It's retro simplicity. Many adults remember playing it as children, and introducing it to the next generation creates a sense of continuity. Plus, it’s an ideal "no screens" activity that still holds attention.
A timeless classic that delivers equal parts fun and fury. Perfect for families, best played with a thick skin and a sense of humor.
