[quote name='Superstar']Thanks for the suggestions! I forgot to mention that my wife and I are already addicted to ticket to ride on the iPad. I am probably going to pick up the physical board game soon. I am going to try out pandemic. It sounds amazing.[/QUOTE]
If you've got an iPad, there are a ton of good boardgame conversions you can try out for a lower cost than buying the physical games: Lost Cities, Ascension, Small World, Carcassonne (Excellent ios implementation), Settlers of Catan, Neuroshima Hex (a personal ios favorite), Zooloretto, Hive, and tons more (Stone Age, Puerto Rico, ok, I better stop).
