Mine would have to be one called "Betrayal at House on the Hill". It's spooky, features fifty different scenarios, and has a house that's completely randomly built every time you play.

PS: No, Mousetrap is not a game. That is a toy.

The Settlers of Catan, has a lot of interaction with players. The group of friends that I learned the game from is just brutal to play with. Everyone is cutthroat when someone rolls a 7 and the deal making is just outrageous. At home with my family it is a more relaxed game, but I have to be the taskmaster to get people to STFU and play. A 60-minute game turns into a 3-hour marathon.

The main box is for 3-4 players and, expansion for 5-6. Two other expansions are available, ?Seafarers? and ?Knights and Cities?

Description says it comes with 50 scenarios. Once you've done them all, does the game become pointless since its repeated?

Risk, even though it seems like I never win
Scrabble, because I have a better than average vocabulary
