The people who exist in the Wilfair world are probably, for the most part, major board game enthusiasts.
Oh, Prior Yates may favor the look-at-me drama of charades or Celebrity -- ever played that party game? -- but all the other Wilfairians likely have their favorite table-top games. The Overbove cousins definitely, since they stayed close to the front desk a lot, growing up, in order to listen for the night bell and guests, and Fair Finley, too, who is a bit of a homebody.
Hmm. Hotelbody?
Sutton Von Hunt is unbeatable when it comes to anything with numbers or spatial challenges (she excels at Mancala, Hex, and Uno).
Fair Finley likes word and knowledge games, like Scrabble and Scattergories, and she loved Careers as a little girl (because she knew she had one career path ahead of her, and the game allowed her to try on a few different hats).
Gomery and Monty like Clue, Risk, and probably tried a little D&D as youths to pass Saturdays spent in the den behind the Motel Fairwil front desk. Monty is also great at Scene It, all versions, and Gomery at chess.
Clementine Hwang is a Trivial Pursuit authority, and any game involving history, and Thurs Mathers? Monopoly, of course.
Obviously they'll all play Apples to Apples one day, down the road, together. Dice-rolling fingers crossed, that is.
