Board Game Arena

I'm an EFL (English as a foreign language) teacher and I was wondering if people could recommend some games that would work well for teaching high level students here on bga.

Some games I already use:
Codenames (their website)
Coup and other social deduction games
Stella.

Word games work well but anything that is relatively short and encourages communication really.

Thanks!

spot it

Maybe The Werewolves of Miller's Hollow, as the players have to discuss, to eliminate each others.

I hate it when I can't tell if something is completely wrong, or just a joke.

Just One could be useful as well.

I would have suggested Decrypto & Perfect Words

But I assume that many letter games can work also :

Concept (also a word game, but not in the list): The explanation is given by icons, but the guessing is by words.

Cooperative games where you have to discuss your (rather complex) actions like Pandemic, Burgle Bros., Solar Storm, Tiny epic defenders, Forbidden island.

You can also check the list of communicative games: https://boardgamearena.com/gamelist?mechanismTag=215
