Stomp! One player plays the two feat of the giant. The other player plays the 15 or so gnomes/elves/whatever.
Knights of Camelot (by TSR) - a board game that had enough random tables that it was suprisingly close to a D&D game without a DM (except that players took turns one at a time and were in competition with each other). there was a viking mini-game that was similar in style, though with less minurature tables.
Also have love for Talisman (2nd ed.) and Wiz-War (Note that one kid I know basically buckled down and learned to read just so that he could PLAY Wiz-War!). And Lost Worlds (I once played a Skeleton and brought a Cold Drake down to 1 body point and then it fled -- I had not a scratch!).
Cosmic Encounter (version before the most recent one). Kinda cool board game where each Alien race has a schtick that breaks the rules.
