[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My older brother used to cream me at chess. Games we played that might work over skype, and let me have a chance, were Othello and Stratego. Risk can also be a lot of fun, but I'm not sure if it would be too fiddly playing that way.

Would a cooperative game like Forbidden Island work?

Would https://en.boardgamearena.com/ work with them skyping/facetiming as well?[/quote]

We don't have 4 devices, and being able to see one another seems to be a really important piece.  So, I think that we could only do an online game would be if the facetime and the game were on the same device.  But maybe I'm missing something, and there's a way to split the screen or something?

We'll definitely try to problem solve Stratego.

Is there a lot of talking in Forbidden Island? Talking is currently problematic, but that will hopefully improve. [/quote]

How about using your phones or get a cheap device like a echo - amazon prime day is coming soon so it may go on sale - get one for the house and one for the hospital.  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HZLHPKP/ref=s9_acsd_al_bw_c_x_1_w?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=merchandised-search-6&pf_rd_r=05JCWGQTZ3VGC1AWG994&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=12cc9c30-2b4f-47a2-b54f-f991ffd6edfc&pf_rd_i=9818047011[/quote]
