Other Rec Room Games

Your shuffleboard table may be the anchor of your rec room, but even the most avid shuffleboard player needs a break sometimes. There are many other rec room games available for the active or contemplative sportsman, with game play suited to rec rooms large and small.

Foosball

Foosball is one of the most exciting rec room games around, and a foosball table would make your home a prime Friday night destination for fun and friends. Foosball is fast-paced and energetic and can be played with two or four people at a time.

Dart Boards

A dart board is the perfect complement to a home bar or lounge area. Competitive darts have been gaining in popularity over the past few years, and what better way to get a jump on the competition than with your own home dart board.

Bubble Hockey

A perennial rec room favorite since the 1980s, bubble hockey tables are always a center of attention. Bubble hockey is the arcade version of old-fashioned table hockey, and includes features such as electronic scoring and crowd noises that make the game even more exciting. Replay classic showdowns such as the U.S. and USSR or host your own neighborhood bubble hockey Stanley Cup.

Table tennis/Ping pong

Table tennis is another rec room game that can be played individually or in teams of two. Even if you don't take to the game as naturally as Forrest Gump, you'll find table tennis to be a fast-paced and very enjoyable addition to your rec room.

Chess sets/tables

If spending quality time with friends and family is important to you, consider adding a chess set or chess table to your rec room. Chess sets offer a nice change of pace to other traditional rec room games, and are a great way to teach your kids about strategy and thinking ahead.

Multi-game chess/poker/backgammon table sets

For the ultimate rec room table game experience, you need a multi-game chess, poker, and backgammon table set. Poker is hotter than it's ever been, and backgammon combines the high-stakes risks of poker and intricate strategizing of chess.
