Mine is Ludo: A solid 2 to 4 Player board game.

Fun Fact: It causes a war in Hindu Mythology.

Second is Chess because dev abandoned their game.

Unfathomable hands down.

It requires 3-6 people for well over two hours (longest was around 5h).

Constant attacks from the sea creatures trying to destroy your ship. With traitors.

But it's so engaging and fun. There is enough depth for replayability, lots of variation, there is always something happening, and players interact a lot, so there aren't boring parts just watching someone go off with their turn.

There was recently an expansion, adding lots of variety and more depth.

Almost everyone who played once wanted to try it again. If you can find people who have the time, they will not walk away until it's over. And will think about how to play differently the next time.
