Forbidden Island
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- maybe you could try a simple co-op game with open information where she could be helped without disrupting the intended flow of the game, like Forbidden Island.
- A week later she said they loved it and her husband was looking into what they should get next.
- Cooperatively I love forbidden Island. It's a very quick game to get and especially if you're watching kids. You can be easily distracted while playing it.
- For cooperative, I'd recommend checking out Forbidden Island.
- Quest for El Dorado, Lost Ruins of Arnak, Forbidden Island, Tikal, The Lost Expedition all might work.
Cons
- Forbidden Island kinda. Each player gets fewer turns with more players, but having access to more powers definitely can make the game easier. This game does lend itself to quarterbacking
- I also just don't think forbidden island is good, especially once you've already played better games.

And then there are cooperative games like Pandemic or the Forbidden Island/Desert/etc
My daughter who is 6 loves forbidden island she picked it up really quick!
If your family likes co-op games, all the Forbidden ones (Island, Desert, Sky, Jungle) are great for kids.
Forbidden island is a great low rules co-op. You move around an island that is sinking trying to get some treasure and get out.
