My lad loves carcassone. The field scoring is a bit complicated but that can be missed out. He loves frustration too.

Not a board game but Uno is great for that age and adults.

Ratuki is like a much better derivative of snap. Fast, disorderly but fun. Rewards tactical thinking surprisingly.

We played Articulate with some of our friends and their children, simple idea and great fun.

There's a "junior" version of Settlers of Catan now, intended for that age and up.

My kids seem to like draughts.Simple but always fun,teaches them strategy too.After a week of playing it they very quickly get to grips with it and you no longer have to hold back on nicking their pieces.
