I would recommend fibbage...friends and I had a blast playing this. Seeing which friend can lie the best.

It's not as crazy as Cards against Humanity, which never is medium stimulation in games I play.

I recommend Settlers of Catan with the one caveat that my circle of friends has renamed the game Divorces of Catan due due how competitive we tend to get with it. It it's your criteria in that there's a trading mechanic to the game, but enough time between turns to get a drink or heckle someone's questionable move.
I'd also recommend this. The strategy is very deep.
Someone also recomended Risk but while a good game it can often cause fights and grudges between players.

Mario Kart. Amazingly fun game with a short pause to load each new race.
Settlers of Catan, a bit complicated to learn, but super fun.
Axis and Allies, it's like risk but with less change, more strategy, and different unit types.

Just the tip..... for medium stimulation. Anything beyond that is deep stimulation.

If were talking about board games, I reccomend munchkin. It's a tabletop card game where you assume an rpg like persona. The goal is to backstab your friends and to trick them into helping you win. It's always a good time.

if you have an even 4 people, a great game is Kemps. Its very simple. There are two teams of two. Each player has 4 cards and there are 4 cards dealt straight up. The goal is to get 4 of a kind. You pick up from the straight up cards as you like and then discard. When no one wants to pick up anymore, 4 more cards are dealt straight up. There are two wrinkles to the game, and this is what makes it social. First, when you have a winning hand, only your partner can claim credit for it. So you have to have non-verbal communication with them. Second, if you have a winning hand and your opponents know it before your partner has claimed it, then your opponents can claim -Anti-Kemps and, assuming you have a winning hand, they score a point. So while from the card perspective its easy to learn the rules and easy to assemble four of a kind, the tricky part is your opponents and even your partner never know for sure what is in your hand. There is a lot of nonverbal communication, and you spend as much time trying to intercept your opponents' nonverbals as you do communicating with your partner. Also, like Bridge, you have to watch what kind of hand your partner is building and feed them cards they might need.
the one draw back is you need teams of 2. I've only played with 4 players, but presumably you could play with 6 or 8 although it would be harder.

Definitely agree with "Cards Against Humanity." Also, "Taboo" and "You Don't Know Jack" are good, too. Although "Monopoly" can be fun, it just takes too fucking long.

Dick is a literary alternative to Cards Against Humanity. All the answers are random quotes from Moby Dick. It's just as dirty.
