I've introduced my parents to a few of the non-American type games (notably Settlers of Catan. I wanted to teach my mom and dad Ticket to Ride and Tsuro, but the Amazon delivery wasn't until the afternoon of the day I left to visit them :( Oh well, they're coming down in July sometime.) My mother and father's favorite of the games we've played is Forbidden Island. It's a cooperative game like Castle Panic, but you're trying to get treasure from an island that's sinking under the water. You gotta work together to get all the treasure, to shore up sinking tiles, and to transport people to the end of the game. It's really fun and really hard to beat.
