Bunny Kingdom, My City, and 7 Wonders are three I would recommend outside of the classics like chess, Catan, or go. Bunny Kingdom is a fun strategy game that’s competitive but not vicious, played with passing decks and a traditional board and pieces; My City is a legacy game where each player has their own board, and the gameplay stacks in more complicated ways as you move through chapters; 7 Wonders is played on individual boards that play differently, and players compete for resources over multiple rounds to complete their individual boards and win points— they’re all pretty dynamic and fast moving games, and learning the rules isn’t over complicated but gameplay isn’t overly simple, which is very fun
