Any recommendations?
5+ is a tough player count. Codenames or Just One are good games for larger groups, but don't really offer the head-to-head option.

I've got my eye on Long Shot: The Dice Game which would likely be a good fit. Plays any number up to 8 and is about a half hour game. The down side is it might be hard to find locally. Heat: Pedal to the Metal is quite popular right now but would maybe be a bit longer than you want and again, is hard to find in stores.
