Games for an over-60s social group

Just as the title says really, my parents are part of a new-ish over-60s community group, they have some funding to buy some games so they have asked me to come up with a list that they can submit on their application.

I do have a lot of games that I play but of course not all suitable, so I'm looking for your suggestions please?

Criteria would be along the lines of :

  • Easy to explain / read the rules
  • Easy to set-up and put away
  • Not too long - maybe 15-20 mins I guess?
  • Played in small groups of maybe 4-6
  • Not too mentally taxing (my parents said this, not me!)

Thankyou in advance xx

Throw throw Burrito
Cards against Humanity
Twister
That game with the market pen that you dot on their foreheads - can't think of the name.

And yes to whoever mentioned physical games as it's important to keep them active physically and mentally

My PIL absolutely love Sequence and often play that with their friends.
