Methodology
The data and selection process for this list of the 30 Greatest American Board Games is based on triangulated key term searches on Amazon.com (controlling for relevance and reviews), plus the estimated total sales at BoardGameGeek.com. The games are rated on four 5-point Likert scales according to:
(1) their “nostalgia rating” (i.e., their “classic” status within American society and culture lasting across multiple eras, indicated by their self-replication and appearance in popular television, film, videogames, and other media as indicated in their respective Wikipedia entries),
(2) their “play rating” (i.e., their user-intuitive and age-appropriate ability to be played and enjoyed, indicated by qualitative ratings on Amazon.com and other review sites),
(3) their “cult rating” (i.e., their communities formed online in message boards and niche enthusiast sites and any awards as indicated by Wikipedia and BoardGameGeek.com), and
(4) their “education rating” (i.e., their ability to develop age-appropriate skills, from fine motor skills to memory and strategic thinking, and any relevant awards or recognition for these characteristics from information at Wikipedia and BoardGameGeek.com).
