It’s that time of year once again where I bore you with the stats for the year.

This year despite one or two poor months I’ve surprisingly played more games than last year, yet had less plays! I’ve also played more new to me games.

I’ve said in a previous post this year seems to be the return of some old favourites such as Netrunner and Ashes. Which I’m glad I’ve done. I’ve really enjoyed playing these games again.

My GOTY…

I think this is probably the easiest year since I started doing this for choosing my game of the year.

As you can see from below I’ve played 84 new games (to me) this year. And there have been some crackers.

But before I share with you my GOTY I think a few honourable mentions need to be made. Any other time these games would be worthy winners.

Honourable mentions: Battle of Hoth, War, Furnace, Tir na nog, Vantage, Rebirth

Ok and now onto my GOTY. Which I think you could guess easily.

My GOTY is…

Rebel Princess.

This is such an amazing trick taking game.

It became a group favourite after the first play. It’s quick to teach. The variety from the princesses and round cards makes each game feel unique.

We have had so many moments and laughs playing this game.

The boring bit…
