Play These Classic Board Games on Your Gaming Console (without missing pieces!)

It’s possible you’ve got some family at home during the current Coronavirus COVID-19 lock-down, and need some urgent distraction and immersion for everybody to escape into. The prospect of a classic board game may seem quaint, with all the new media devices around the house. (You may only have those tatty old boxes with missing pieces anyway.) Luckily, there are a load of classic games made for PS4, Xbox etc. that you can download for nice prices and instantly play, without having to worry about losing more pieces, or tidying up afterwards.
