[QUOTE="Asmor, post: 4370386, member: 1154"] Without any more info, I'll suggest [url=http://bgg.cc/game/50]Lost Cities[/url]. It seems to be the quintessential couples game, and always pops up any time anyone asks for a game to play with their S/O. I've only played it online against one person, so I can't comment much on it, but that one person is a housewife who's big into gaming and she says she plays it with her hubby a lot too. If you want to get a bit more specific, I might be able to give you some more suggestions. For example, a lot of games which are popular with couples have relatively low intra-player interaction (especially in way which allow one player to screw the other over) because a lot of the time one of the people won't care for cutthroat play. Just a couple other suggestions without any more info: [url=http://bgg.cc/game/9209]Ticket to Ride[/url]: I don't care for it as a 2 player, because it's just too big and it minimizes player interaction. That said, a lot of people like it as a 2 player game for just that reason. It's also nice because now you've got a great gateway game that's fast to teach and easy to play any time you've got a few more people over. [url=http://bgg.cc/game/19999]Aton[/url]: My fiancée picked this up for the Egyptian theme. She claims to like it but is never up for it, which is annoying because I love it. Lots of hard decisions, player interaction, and strategy. The first few games are likely to be quick because there's a few different ways your opponent can sneak in a win right under your nose until you learn to watch out for them. [/QUOTE]
