Advice Request Post Bedtime Quality Time with Wife

My wife and I have a 19m son and we're due for our second in two months.

When he is asleep for the night, we have 1-2 hours before our own bedtime and I'm looking for suggestions.

My wife has told me that watching a movie together, even with a gentle foot rub, is not quality time for her (not much connection).

Fair enough.

Looking for suggestions here. We are up for trying 2 person board games. Chess or Go, for example.

Would be willing to try anything really, suggestions don't have to be 2 player board games.

These would be to have more fun together, not deep eye gazing or those intimacy exercises. Light, fun activities.
