Played a few of them, not particularly fond of most of the ones I have played on that list.
Betrayal at House on the Hill is the most fun on that list with a decent sized group of friends, I feel like they should put the difficulty as "easy to medium" as there's 50 different scenarios in that game each with their own level of difficulty.
Pandemic is okay, it gets very boring once you know how to win as it's extremely easy... it's a little more fun with the the On the Brink expansion.
I'm actually sort of amazed that not one of the following was included in the article:
- Settlers of Catan
- Carcassonne
- Ticket to Ride
- Small World
- Mansions of Madness
- 7 Wonders
