Quoted from playboywillis:I have a few. Mostly play with my wife and while many games are possible with 2 people, not many are optimal. Curious if anyone knows any games that are really good with 2 people. We have Pandemic, Innovation, Munchkin, Ticket to Ride, Carcassone, and a few others. The only game we have that is MADE for 2 people is Claustrophobia. I love it, but she's not so much a fan.
Splendor is fun for 2 people(up to 4).
Lotus is fun for 2 people(up to 4).
There are several fighting/war games that are strictly 2 player. Stronghold, Rivet Wars, & Star Wars Rebellion to name a few.
Quoted from djreddog:We don't play board games enough, but we are starting to get back into playing. Over the past few years we acquired D&D board games Castle Ravenloft and Legend of Drizzt. The kids are 11,11, 13, and 17. They love D&D, but sometimes the rule set is too deep or confusing for everyone.
I was introduced to Settler of Catan over the weekend and everyone really enjoyed it. We played 3-4 games on Sunday alone. Now I'm looking to add a few more selections to our inventory. Munchkins? Ticket to Ride? Coup? Any suggestions?
Perfect!! They are into worker placement games!
Here are some light to medium Euro's/worker placement games my family enjoys(12,14,15):
Champions of Midgard: worker + dice rolling
Easy to learn & tons of fun!
World's Fair: worker + deck building
Fun & easy to learn
Imhotep: worker
Very different, w tons of wooden blocks!
Stone Age: worker + dice rolling
Catan on Steroids!
Splendor: deck building + collecting gems
Fun & short game times.
Viticulture: worker placement in old world Tuscany
Heavy learning curve, but very neat game.
Coldwater Crown: work placement fishing tournament.
Very fun & different!
Last but not least
The Manhattan Project Energy Empire: work + engine building.
One of my favorite games! Check it out.
These are the games we play the most. Check them out, YouTube them, & enjoy playing as a family!

Quoted from HoakyPoaky:Isn't Imperial Assault very similar to Descent gameplay? I've heard that name before.
It's Decent with a Star Wars skin. Plays nearly identical from what I understand. My son & I have had some pretty entertaining skirmishes playing Imperial Assault. It's also fun to collect the extra characters.
