Carcassonne, thurn and taxis or ticket to ride

The works also had some strategy games in for about £8 - we have been playing "if wishes were fishes" it's a bit silly, but really good fun

A card game called Trading Pit.
Easy to learn, great fun for all ages though it can get quite noisy!

Top Trumps if there's a theme that they're in to (e.g. Star Wars, F1 racing, etc)?

Pictureka is a good game, always a laugh playing it!

We love Cranium - as it appeals to everyone's strengths in the different categories.

You play in two teams. We did my family vs hubby's family.

Articulate is brilliant - otherwise Cranium is a good option!
