Today I've got some casual board game suggestions that aren't just Catan and Ticket to Ride. I'm going to be suggesting lighter games for 4 to 6 players. This is based on a question from long time fan Emmett O'Brian.

Emmett asks,
What are some good games for a casual group (4-6 players)? Everyone knows Catan, Ticket to Ride etc. For a beer and pretzel kind of night. I'm extra interested in cooperative games or building games cause that's what my wife likes. [ READ MORE ]

What are some less well-known cooperative kids board games? – Ask The Bellhop

Brian Kurtz, Tabletop Bellhop patron asks,

I am looking for advice on cooperative tabletop games to play with kids of different ages (grade school through high school).
I have enjoyed Hoot Owl Hoot for very young kids and Forbidden Island for older kids, and I have heard good things about Pandemic.
Are there less well-known options I should be checking out?
 
Thanks for the question Brian and thanks for being a patron of The Tabletop Bellhop!

More important to your question is the number of games coming out that are fun for players of all ages. For many years kids games were fun, for kids. It was rare to find a game that was fun for both kids and adults. Now, you specifically asked for cooperative games, that narrows the field down quite a bit, but I do have some suggestions.
