With the 8-year-old I enjoy Uno, Dobble, and Fluxx - simple card games with little to no strategy and some humour. With a group of friends, Articulate, Apples to Apples, and Masquerade (can't find a link - like Articulate, but miming) - humour again, and no strategy, and having to convey your meaning without the obvious. (On that reasoning I ought to enjoy Pictionary, but I don't, because drawing.)

I don't much enjoy strategy games as I'm not very good at them, but there are some simpler ones I will play with my husband (because he doesn't laugh at me for messing up) - Carcassonne, Lost Cities (link is to play online, in case anyone's interested), Jaipur, and Codenames Duet.
