Before lockdown they came over 2-3 times a month and we'd play games for hours. Our current favorite strategy board game is Talisman.

Particularly word games of various types; classic xwords, codifiers, searches... and, of course, Scrabble! Solitaire (cards) can be distracting, as is chess (though haven't played that for a while now). Currently, on my tablet, I have a Bubble Crusher game that does involve an element of strategy, so greatly enjoying that too...
