games/gnocatan is pretty good fun (it's a copy of the Settlers of Catan series 
of games)

games/wolfpack is pretty fun too, but pretty in-depth and long term (you can 
finish a game over a weekend if you only sleep for 2-4 hours a night, or a 
game can last a year..)

There are plenty of blackjack/poker/etc copies in the ports tree too.
