Board Games for One or Two
Geek and Sundry has some suggestions if you're looking for games that are good for one or two players.

Minute Realms (iSlaytheDragon): “Yet for this cleverness, the game is not difficult, either to play or to teach. It’s not a brain burner, and even with non-simultaneous play...it still finishes in fifteen to twenty minutes and is a decently satisfying snack.”
