I played Settlers of Catan with my brother and his grown children last night. Worked pretty well. There is a small learning curve for how to move pieces, draw cards, roll dice, etc but it is not too bad. This was my first chance to actually play a game on this platform.

I have subscribed to a lot of games that I play on a regular basis with friends like Eclipse, Splendor, Ticket to Ride (there are a number of variations available). They even have larger games like Gloomhaven and a demo release of the upcoming Frosthaven.

Oh, and a lot of D&D options too if that is your preference.
Since the Rona has hit, I've been relegated to playing 2 player games with my wife (which has been great with a couple plays of The Gallerist, and Undaunted Normandy last night). I have been jonesing for playing with more players on other games like Pax Pamir 2e on something like TTS. If anyone ever wants to play a game like that, I would be all in and would teach it.
