Most tabletop games involve strategy and/or luck, but a handful of games out there involve actual skill, too.

Veep star and former Saturday Night Live cast member Julia Louis-Dreyfus hosted last week’s episode of SNL, and as often happens on the show, her talents were largely wasted on some pretty mediocre sketches.
