✦ Honorable Mentions
Godzilla: Tokyo Clash. didn't make the cut for now, need to play it more.
Tale of Pirates. A very light, quick and fun campaign game that gives a fantastic "pirating" feel.
Chronicles of Crime. Fantastic game for a chill evening of playing detective trying to solve a case alone or with the help of another person.
Micro Macro. Finding Waldo/Wally in a whole new fun way. Also super fun when played co-op.
Android. A heavy game dripping with theme that you play once a year or so. A staple in the collection.
Dead Cells. It was super fun to go through all of it. It's a game you pick up, finish and pass on to someone else.
Necromolds. Super fun and simple war game. Crushing your opponents clay minis is just so much fun.
Veiled Fate. Always really good fun with 6 or more players.
Fate of Fantos. The ender of friendships. The destroyer of relationships. The most cutthroat board game we've ever played. Such good fun though.
The Few and the Cursed. Very similar to Runebound and The Outer Rim but with enough difference in theme and mechanics to make it fun in its own way.
Lands of Galzyr. Like reading a book. But more of an interactive experience than just reading. Fun story for some chill evenings.
Android: Netrunner & Legend of the Five Rings LCG. These two card games will forever be in my heart. For as long as there was an active community and support for both, I thoroughly enjoyed them. May both of them rest in peace.
