Might grab Galaxy Trucker at some stage, looks fun :) 

In a recent powercut (which took tooooo damned long to fix!) my girlfriend and I spent hours playing both Exploding Kittens with a few of the addon packs as well as the Connect 4 card game - much more enjoyable than the game with counters. Might not be the most complicated card games ever but I do find both quite enjoyable.  

And to top things off the cat managed to keep all his whiskers this power cut.  I learnt my lesson, hes too dumb to not sniff lit candles..  :p  

We've been playing Munchkin which is a quick, fun game for the family. The ability to backstab people cannot be underestimated hahaha.

Also enjoying Dungeon Mayhem: Monster Madness that my teenage son recommended (as his mates play it). A great little game that we had at the table over the Xmas and got a lot of good feedback from the family.

Love Munchkin, got a couple variations of it :) Love the whole "hey I need help with this dragon" "sure thing".... during the fight another dragon is drawn.. "yeah... see ya, Im outta here!" :D

Rummikub.
Play with numbered tiles.
Simple to play but needs more strategy once you get familiar with it.

Zigg: Have you tried Rummikub With A Twist? More Jokers: double, colour change and a nasty Mirror joker.

We often take the jokers out to stop them being hoarded as a strategy.

We have played peasant recently. Kids really like it esp my daughter. She loves monopoly but we have a self modified version with a 90 minute limit. 

Pandemic has been great fun, and is co-op.

We have Catan and Ticket to Ride but never get around to starting them. 

My wife and I used to enjoy the odd evening playing Yahtzee and rarely make the time above other priorities these days. Should revive it.

Doesn't that then take all the fun and strategy out of the game? Without the jokers it just turns into a mechanical grind.

We sometimes use more jokers and other variations, but sometimes its difficult to keep everyone happy with various game flows possible.

Depends on who in the family is playing, they all have different setup preferences |-) 

I've started playing a card game called Bolivia with mum and her friends.

It's a Canasta type game.

I'm quite enjoying it, and the oldies don't mind pulling a swifty on the newbie! but I'm getting better!

Played a couple at a mates house the other week

Muffin Time - Seems simple, start with 3 cards in your hand, to win, have 10 cards at the beginning of your next turn

Joking Hazard - for non PC players...

Codenames - Good little game

Ticket To Ride is a fun and fast game, kids enjoy it - I have the New York edition.

Catan can either be brilliant, or be a friend killer :D Really got to have the right group to play it with ;)

Scrabble Harry Potter Edition. It's a fun twist on the original. You can steal tiles, get bonus points, spell words backwards, and borrow a blank if you have the letter it represents on your rack (among other things). Think I got it for $20.
