Eartha Kitten Posted July 2, 2018 #1 Share Posted July 2, 2018 Our family group is sailing the Marina this August. We are big on board games in the evenings and are wondering if they are available on the ship or if we should bring our own. In particular, we are thinking of chess, backgammon, Parcheesi, Rummikub. I can 't seem to find this info on the Oceania site or this board. Anyone know if these are already on board? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is the Board Room on deck 14 near the entrance to the Polo Grill, you will find card tables and board games not always with all the parts intact. you may want to take travel versions of your favourites, lots of cards though.

Eartha Kitten Posted July 3, 2018 Author #4 Share Posted July 3, 2018 OK. Thanks for the info. Surely they have at least a complete chess set, no? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulchili Posted July 3, 2018 #7 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Sincerely hoping that was a rhetorical question :') I was strictly referring to the possibility of a missing king for the chess set. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimandStan Posted July 3, 2018 #8 Share Posted July 3, 2018 I was strictly referring to the possibility of a missing king for the chess set. Glad to hear that- ....but couldn't just about anything be used to substitute, in the event of a missing piece or two? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPR Posted July 3, 2018 #9 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Bring Catan! Our family’s favorite board game, We also enjoy the quick playing Milles Bornes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulchili Posted July 3, 2018 #10 Share Posted July 3, 2018 Glad to hear that- ....but couldn't just about anything be used to substitute, in the event of a missing piece or two? Can a salt shaker become a king? :D Also - it depends how many pieces are missing. It might be difficult to remember which replacement is what chess piece (not to mention black vs white) :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dogs4fun Posted July 4, 2018 #14 Share Posted July 4, 2018 Many of the game pieces were missing - can't remember all the board games. There was a complete chess set but can't guarantee that this is still the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
