I could name plenty of games that don't require a lively social atmosphere to enjoy.

I play and enjoy cribbage online all teh time and for all I know my opponent is in the process of hanging himself and just wanted one last sad game.

But Apples to Apples is entirely dependent on the social vibe. Mechanically it is not a particularly interesting game.

Guillotine is wonderful! Easy to learn, can be played with just two people (but more is also fun), and doesn't take hours to finish.

Thanks everyone - lots of choices, I love it!

The nice thing about Carcassonne - it's never the same game twice. The board is made up of tiles that are played as the game progresses. Because of that, there is no set-up time, and it also travels well.

Russian roulette?

Taboo is great because it comes with a buzzer. I wish I could carry that buzzer around all the time and use it during conversations with annoying people.
