My favourite game played with dice is "Fischeln" ("smells fishy"), which is called that because when you don't get the required points in your turn you have a "Fisch", and when it looks like you won't make the point you get teased that it's starting to smell fishy.
My favourite card games... let me break it down by numbers of players! Two: Pinagel, a game that no one outside my family has ever heard of. Seriously, I've never found anyone I'm not related to who knows that game. For three players, the three-player version of Schafkopf, and Skat. Four players: Hudeln, which is a bit like Watten but you don't play in teams of two against each other, but everyone is on their own. All those games are played with the German/Bavarian deck of cards.
For more players I like Rummy, or party games like Taboo.
As for board games, I'm pretty old-school. I like Mensch ärgere Dich nicht, Backgammon and Nine Men's Morris. But there's also a great game where you train your memory by recounting and adding details to crime cases which I love playing.
(We play a lot of games in my family. On both sides. My father and his siblings used to play in Schafkopf tournaments, as did my grandfather on my mom's side. I literally cannot remember a single family visit where someone didn't play some kind of game, even if it was just the adults playing Skat while we kids waited for them to finish (they would always put the money they played with into our piggy banks, and we got to count and divide it ourselves). When my nine-year old cousin stayed with us over Christmas we taught her how to play Rummy and played for hours in the evening.)
