I need a boardgame to play with my wife. After scouting the internet, i came to this shortlist:

Jaipur
Pandemic
Agricola: all creatures small and big
Castles of burgundy

are these good choices?

Of the ones you've mentioned, I've only played pandemic and it plays well as a two player but I think that you would tire of it more quickly than other options, especially if it is only the two of you playing it over and over. I think it probably lasts longer with more players, meaning more talking.
I have the full game of Agricola...the one you mention is a two player spin off. I think the full game works well for two players though and we've played multiple times without becoming bored of it.

I'd also recommend ticket to ride with a smaller map such as the india expansion (although I think it requires the base game as well).
Carcassone is another favourite in my house and I don't think it loses anything when you play two player, it's great. Plus, there's loads of expansions and they're pretty cheap so when I buy a new game I sometimes treat myself to another carcassone expansion that adds a new element.

The catan spin off, the rivals for catan, is a two player only game and it's brilliant. You collect resources to build a settlement. It's really addictive and we played it tons on holiday.

Dominion is great for two and then also scales up well but there's less player interaction because you're both building your own hand. Games are quick (about fifteen minutes) but usually someone will suggest one more game and before you know it you've played ten in a row. This also has lots of expansions although I've not bought any yet.

Finally, there's my new game, alchemists. Brilliant for two players but it's quite complex so unless you play a lot of games it might be a bit horrible to try and get into, although the manual is great at explaining how to play. I really really like the deduction element in this game.

I love 'Quoridor'. It's a brilliantly fast, screw-your-buddy 2 player game that token lurker Zeppo introduced us to. Great for the whole 'dam it, one more round and I'll thrash you' replayability thing.

Ordered Pandemic since it was the theme that my wife liked the most. And since it's coop, at least we can avoid the piece flinging at each other's faces that most of our chess matches ended with.

And that XCOM game seems pretty excellent. I'm sure i'll be buying it eventually.

Since my post last week I have to add Memoir 44 and Dead of Winter to my games list. Both are excellent as expected and I heard dead of winter is going to be on tabletop so expect it to be sold out everywhere soon. I actually bought it as soon as it was back in stock and now that I've heard that, I'm glad I did.

I also have copied Matt in backing Exploding Kittens, looks fun for a party/light/travel game and it has been smashing kickstarted records so I thought I may as well back it for the nsfw kickstarted exclusive deck.

Just read up on 'Dead of Winter'. Looks great fun. Now I want to play it in a dark night in a cabin in the woods (come to the cottage!).

Recent additions to my stash:

'7 Wonders' - my pyramid's bigger than your hanging gardens. Thanks Malia!
'Sheriff of Nottingham' - bribe the sheriff to keep the people of Nottingham supplied with manky teddy bears
'Mondus Novus' - ship-building in the golden age of discovery (thanks to a stranger on Reddit).

Oh, and I saw 'Hipster Dice' in Meeples but decided to put the £4 towards over-hopped imported beer instead.

What an amazing game.

No, I think it was myp who mentioned it a page or so back. Two days left if you want to get in on it though.

Xcom the board game is a) brutal, b) excellent.

Whoever had the idea to have a timer for certain parts of the game is a fucking genius. Frantic doesn't even start to describe it.

Yay! It does look quite simple, but should be good for a laugh with a few drinks.

Also we'll have finished a game by the time Gaywood has figured out how the first phase of Game of Thrones works.

Played 'Sheriff of Nottingham' last night. Lots of good natured bribery, corruption, accusations, and contraband was had.

Seems to be a money supply issue: the game comes with loads of coins in various denominations, but each player only starts with 50 and all the fines and penalties are paid to and from the sherriff and the townsfolk from this supply, meaning that a weak start reduces one's chances to bribe (but you can always promise goods).

Then played some strange 3D German game with large wooden trees where the players are gnomes trying to hide in the shadows from a moving candle.

I think Russell may have this, but we only tried playing when I was really, really ill, so was not a success as I could barely remember my name, let alone why everything was sideways.

Ultimately, I don't think it looks that complicated once you get the hang of it, but I think it's probably easier to learn the rules if the person explaining the game doesn't keep singing/dancing as they are doing it. You might not have this problem, though.

Yeah, we have the card game version, and it's OK, but a bit Munchkinny in the fact that there are so many ruiles that can be in play at any time.

Been through the whole round, done each step? OK. Oh, you forgot that Eddard Stark has reknown so should have collected an extra power token.

Also the train/car noises any time you move a game piece around a board. It doesn't matter if the game has any cars or trains, or even any game pieces. Make sure it screeches as it goes around those corners, though.

Star Realms is a good deckbuilding game, and there's a mobile game version of it now, of which a good chunk is free.

You can get it on iOS and Android, and if you pay the £2 to unlock the whole thing, my username is Grimddd.

Yeah, Pandemic On the Brink. Introduces the option of a fifth player, who plays against the team trying to spread a new more virulent disease with secret movements they track on a pad. Also introduces the more virulent disease and increased numbers of bad cards, petrie dishes for the disease cubes and some new roles and events.

Played 'Nations' yesterday. It's basically a cardboard version of 'Civilisation' without the map.

I really enjoyed some of the mechanics, such as 'buying' a war to prevent someone stronger than you starting one and you having to suffer the bad stuff (loss of money, food, or other resource).

Some agonising decisions to be made, especially regarding what improvements or wonders to build and dedicate resources to. Challenging, and quite lenghty, but one I'd play again (and not go for military strength at the expense of producing food or money).

Cosmic is incredible. I really hate how little I get to play it.

We played it this weekend and it was amazing. Had five players and the first game was a learning game, although in fairness it is actually a very simple game to learn. Everyone then asked if we could have another game straight after, so we did. Will definitely try and get some more games of it I the coming weeks so as I can justify buying an expansion :D Even right out the box though, the variety is excellent.
