The verdict
Hasbro Gaming Connect 4 Classic Grid — about $9 at Amazon · 4.7★ from ~78,500 ratings · drop a disc, get four in a row — and the discs themselves do the talking.
Comparison context: 2 players, ages 6+, games take about 10 minutes, and at about $9 it is one of the cheapest games in this catalog. It is the best stocking-stuffer or classroom pick here, and unlike the bigger board games it needs zero setup: snap the legs on, slide the bar, play.

Blind details
Blind-shopper guidance: Connect 4 is one of the most tactile-friendly mainstream games there is. The grid is a physical frame, the discs are chunky plastic you hold in your hand, and dropping one in makes a satisfying clack as it lands — you can feel the column fill and hear where your disc went.
The only visual part is tracking the pattern of red versus yellow, and the discs are different colors in identical shapes, so a simple workaround (one player's discs marked with small flat bump dots, plus announcing each drop's column) makes it playable. Reviews at this scale — nearly 80,000 of them — consistently call it a durable, quick, all-ages game.
Honest caveats: out of the box the two disc colors are red and yellow with no tactile difference — the marking workaround is on you, not in the box. The grid is plastic and light; it will slide on a slick table, so play on a mat or placemat. Price seen at $8.89–$9.99 depending on seller; confirm at checkout.
