I played the first half of a game of Twilight Struggle with A.C. tonight, and it’s definitely one of my favorite games. The geeks over at Board Game Geek agree with me, as it’s consistenly the highest rated game on the site. And before you ask, it doesn’t have anything to do with sparkly vampires and tween girls. Twilight Struggle is a two-player strategic game where two players take on the roles of the US and the USSR during the Cold War.
