My teenage son enjoys games, and will sometimes ask for me to play something with him. We play Payday, Life, Sorry, Clue (if his sister is free to join us), Storming the Castle (Princess Bride game - if we get at least 1 more person, makes it more fun), the dice game Farkle and the card-based games Skip-Bo, Uno and Phase 10.
I especially love word-based games like "25 words or less" Taboo, Boggle, Pictionary and things like that, but since my son has a reading/writing learning disability that makes it harder, and some of those games require teams and thus more players than I am likely to have interested at any one time. My best friends used to host game nights and those were special favorites of mine when we played, but I haven't played any of those in ages.
As a teen I loved Pac Man/Ms Pac Man, Frogger and some of those other classics. My BIL just got a Nintendo Switch with some of the classic games but I haven't tried playing any of them.
Not hugely into sports - I run and do martial arts (and I am SO looking forward to going back to my martial arts classes when things calm down; training by myself sucks), but I did enjoy shooting basketballs with my son in the driveway, until our hoop was damaged in a storm last year. We also have a Wii but I haven't played that in awhile either; my favorite game there, hands down, was bowling.
For the past year or two, I've enjoyed playing "Word Cookies" on my phone - rearranging letters into new words - Yahtzee and a word category game called "Red Herring." Those are my main forms of daily play these days.
