Roll For It

2-4 players (best with 4) // 30 mins // Easy

Just a small deck of cards and 6 small dice per player, so it’s easy to carry with you and needs very little table space. Try to roll your dice to match the dice shown on one of the three cards before others do. Repeat until one player hits the points needed to win.

Blokus

2-4 players (best with 4) // 20 mins // Easy

The main game board actually has slight ridges to separate the squares in it’s grid, making it easy to play your piece plus make it safe when a table is slightly bumped. Simply play a piece of your color to connect to the corner of any of your pieces on the board… yes, you only connect diagonally, not edge to edge!

Reminds me a bit of the cycle battle in Tron:)

My City

[note: this is NOT the roll and build version, but the full game]

I just got this game to play with my good friend thousands of miles away (due to the following note):

This can be played by people in other locations who also have the game using Zoom, as per this comment under a YouTube video (and mentioned in the first video below):

Another good point is that it plays well with physical copies across the world, using Skype or whatever, and calling the pieces bingo style!
