    Fun boardgames?

    My roommate is hosting an couples party this weekend and the plan is for everyone to bring a bottle of wine, an appetizer, and a boardgame.

    I'm looking for some new game. I've got Catch Phrase, Scattegories and the old classics which are fun but I want something new.

    Any suggestions would be greaty appreciated.
    So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,
    blue skies from pain.
    Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail?
    A smile from a veil?
    Do you think you can tell?
    And did they get you to trade your heroes for ghosts?
    Hot ashes for trees?
    Hot air for a cool breeze?
    Cold comfort for change?
    And did you exchange a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?

    I just bought Pictionary Man (Where you draw on a little guy instead of a piece of paper).

    My friends and I tried to play it on New Year's Eve, but people got too drunk and wouldn't listen to the instructions.

    Scene it can be fun, and I'm a huge fan of Trivial Pursuit. I've also played Foodie Fight, which is fun, but none of these compares to a good game of dominoes.

    Cranium. We play this almost every New Years with friends.

    Its a mixture of charades, pictionary, trivial pursuit and various word puzzles. The spelling backwards category is a lot of fun, esp w/some alcohol in you. There's also a category where you have to make a silent clay model of your clue & your team has to guess. Brilliant, I once had 'golf course' and they guessed it!

    Actually, THEY were amazing. I got desperate. In the last 10 sec, I flattened the clay, stuck my finger in to make a dimple, rolled a small ball & pushed it into the hole.
