But those are simple. Cricket and Backgammon are so hard to learn they're destined to die off was more what I was getting at. Chess, by contrast, is difficult to be good at but the rules for how the pieces move is pretty simple.

I read your post backwards

Reading comprehension, how does it work?

Backgammon is simply not that complicated.

I don't play it that often, but I didn't find it that hard.

Any sport or game that can't be explained in like five minutes isn't long for this world. Backgammon goes back like 5,000 years but I spent a good hour trying to learn the basic rules the other day and had to give up. I couldn't make a bit of sense out of it.

Dude, I learned how to play backgammon at age 8.

Lots of backgammon fans in here.

Maybe it's easier when being explained to you by another person, but I found the online descriptions of the rules totally confusing.

This board game talk brings back fond memories of those afternoons I would spend at home, alone, playing Risk, Monopoly, and chess........with myself because I had no one to play with. Chess was pretty easy because I always knew what that other bastard was gonna do next.
