Multi-player 7 Wonders is a very good game. It's best with at least four or five players, which makes the selection and passing of cards quite challenging. Duel really surprised me; as you say it has a lot of depth and they have managed to capture a lot of the feel of the original game in a 2p version, which is unusual as often 2p versions of games are more limited.

I am currently loving Quacks in Quedlinburg.
Even the missus (the mostly non gamer in the house) plays this.

Good old-school zany German game title! It's been on my wishlist since it won Kennerspiel des Jahres, but we seem to be playing shorter games at the moment - on the table this week are Kingdomino and Arboretum. Kingdomino is pretty straightforward, but Arboretum needs a *lot* of concentration on what your opponent is up to as you need to monitor two discard piles closely.

Star Wars: Outer Rim added to the collection last week. Only played the one game so far, but that was just to get to grips with the rules.

This is already a lot of interest from the guys down at the games club.
I can see this one getting a lot of play.

Recently got 'Khet: The Lazer Game', can't recommend it enough, but after just one game apiece the kids won't play anymore. It's too difficult apparently :(

Forgot to add, discovered Khet, from Dave Gorman's recent book - Dave Gorman vs the rest of the world, worth a read to discover some obscure games :)

Just saw this thread flagged up in 'related threads' and thought, 'oh that looks interesting' - only to discover that it was a thread I started a few years ago. Have been away awhile! Most recent additions include 'Camel Up' which the girls really enjoy; and also Burgle Bros which is the first co-operative game I've played; and Corinth.

The answer to Bru-bru's question from 2012 is Battle of the Little Big Horn. It had plastic figures of soldiers and indians, and i loved it.

I wonder if that is a record for answering a question on fetch, 7 years?

Camel Up annoys me in an irrational way because its title is so meaningless. I am sure it was supposed to be Camel Cup and someone misread the artwork.

Taliking of camels, I received Through The Desert from my BGG Secret Santa last year and it's now approaching the top of my "to play" list.
