I enjoy crunchier board games, but the fun from games usually comes from playing them with others and most of the people I know don't enjoy games that take a non-negligible time to set up and explain the rules.
When playing with others, I'll grab games like
Tsuro - https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/16992/tsuro https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/16992/tsuro - put down a tile, move tokens along the path, try to stay on the board the longest
Skull - https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/92415/skull https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/92415/skull - a bluffing game where you can see the moment people grok the need to lie to win
Monopoly Deal - https://smile.amazon.com/Hasbro-B0965-Monopoly-Deal-Card/dp/B00NQQTZCO https://smile.amazon.com/Hasbro-B0965-Monopoly-Deal-Card/dp/... - A questionable quality board game turned into a great pub card game
I have Long Shot - https://www.perplext.com/long-shot-the-dice-game https://www.perplext.com/long-shot-the-dice-game - on backorder at the moment, but it seems like a simple roll & write game that people can quickly pick up.
I'm solo playing Bruxelles 1897 - https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/275913/bruxelles-1897 https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/275913/bruxelles-1897 - before asking my partner to try it. The rules are dense and it seems hard to explain the phases at the moment.
If you are looking for tons of board game reviews, https://www.shutupandsitdown.com/ https://www.shutupandsitdown.com/ and their youtube channel do a great job IMO of covering a wide range of game types.
