Here's why:
* Traditional Games: Most board games and card games are designed for in-person play. You only need the physical components of the game itself: the board, cards, dice, pieces, etc.
* Digital Alternatives (Optional): While not essential, you might consider:
* Smartphones/Tablets for Digital Dice/Timers: Apps can act as dice rollers, timers, or even play background music. This adds a digital element but is not a requirement.
* Smart Speakers: You could use a smart speaker to play music, set timers, or even use voice commands for certain actions in some games.
* Video Chat: If you want to add a visual element, video chat allows you to see each other while playing.
Focus on the Experience: The true value of playing games together is the interaction, laughter, and shared moments. Don't get caught up in needing fancy equipment. The most important thing is to have fun!
