It seems that working as a team and maybe splitting up to look for 
something to solve a puzzle would work. Maybe we will see this first in 
an action/adventure. My wife actually played part of a RavenShield level 
(tactical shooter)which I set up to be pretty easy. She was not very 
interested. She did watch me play parts of Syberia which had great 
graphics but if she unwinds using the computer it is Solitaire or one of 
the POPCAP games. Oh well she doesn't tie up the computer much!!
