Fun multiplayer games for the whole family, separated by distance

To help keep spirits up, I'm trying to get together online with family for an afternoon board game thing. We don't all use the same phone/tablet ecosystem, and a lot of card-based games we've played before in person (cribbage, for instance) require secrecy, so we can't play those types of games (without having one person manage a deck of cards and not play), or games through an iOS/Android mix. Are there reliable, secure (non-dodgy, non-gambling-focused), easy-to-use, browser-based multiplayer board games (Scrabble, for instance) that we can sign up with separate accounts, and meet up online through our laptops?

We've done other games online with boardgamer friends, like Alien Frontiers and Tiny Epic Quest, where we can share knowledge and board/piece status through our iPads. I'm looking more for games where my parents, say, could jump in quickly on their laptop, without having to buy a specialized game, need to learn a bunch of rules, and getting bored. So common and fun card and board games managed through a web interface would be more in line with what I'm looking for. Thanks for any tips!
