A man cave or manspace is a male retreat or sanctuary in a home, such as a specially equipped garage, spare bedroom, media room, den, or basement.

The term "man cave" is a metaphor describing a room inside the house where "guys can do as they please", without fear of upsetting any female sensibility about house decor or design.

Paula Aymer of Tufts University calls it the "last bastion of masculinity".

The phrase is thought to come from the 1993 publication, Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus.

Table tennis, also known as ping pong, is a sport in which two or four players hit a lightweight ball back and forth across a table using a small bat.

The game takes place on a hard table divided by a net.

Except for the initial serve, the rules are generally as follows: players must allow a ball played toward them to bounce one time on their side of the table, and must return it so that it bounces on the opposite side at least once.

A point is scored when a player fails to return the ball within the rules.

Play is fast and demands quick reactions.

Spinning the ball alters its trajectory and limits an opponent's options, giving the hitter a great advantage.

A recreation room (also known as a rec room, rumpus room, or ruckus room) is a room used for a variety of purposes, such as parties, games and other everyday or casual use.

The term is common in the United States, Australia and Canada, but is less common in the United Kingdom where the preferred term is games room.

Often children and teenagers entertain their friends in the rec room, which is often located in the basement, away from the main living areas of the house.

Usually it is a larger space than a living room to have the ability to serve multiple purposes and entertain moderately large groups.

Poker is a family of card games that combine gambling, strategy, and skill.

All poker variants involve betting as an intrinsic part of play, and determine the winner of each hand according to the combinations of players' cards, at least some of which remain hidden until the end of the hand.

Poker games vary in the number of cards dealt, the number of shared or "community" cards, the number of cards that remain hidden, and the betting procedures.

A billiard table, billiards table, or pool table is a bounded table on which billiards-type games (cue sports) are played.

In the modern era, all billiards tables (whether for carom billiards, pool or snooker) provide a flat surface usually made of quarried slate, that is covered with cloth (usually of a tightly-woven worsted wool called baize), and surrounded by vulcanized rubber cushions, with the whole elevated above the floor.

More specific terms are used for specific sports, such as snooker table and pool table, and different-sized billiard balls are used on these table types.

An obsolete term is billiard board, used in the 16th and 17th centuries.
