When did board games 'click' for you? (lemmy.world)

Has it been a consistent hobby since childhood or was there a single game, a mechanism, theme or social situation which hooked you in?

As a kid, I liked boardgames but I haven't really been introduced to anything that you couldn't find on a toy store so I didn't know about "real" boardgames before I found a YouTube series called "Tabletop". They basically recorded playthroughs of different types of boardgames with amazing production. That series really opened me up to the world of boardgaming and gave me a good enough sample of different boardgames that I could have an idea of what kind of games I liked.
