January 2021

Days of Wonder has announced a new special edition of Ticket to Ride Europe, Portal Games has announced the games they’re planning on publishing this year, and The Op and Asmodee have released two new editions of Spot It!.

Great Scott! Based on the popular 1985 film, Back to the Future: Back in Time has players trying to help Marty McFly’s parents fall in love, avoid the bully Biff, and get the time traveling DeLorean back on the road.

2020 was a bumpy year in many respects, but there definitely was a silver lining: some great games were released! There were many great candidates for our annual award, but in the end we had to narrow it down to one.

AEG has announced a new racing game, Ravensburger is hosting a puzzle design contest for kids to support charity, and some online gaming conventions have been announced.

Published by Loki and designed for kids, Superfly is a set collection dice game about swatting the cards you want and trying to collect sets.

The timer is ticking and you have sixty seconds to roll your meeples as fast as you can to complete dance routines and win the approval of the crowd.

Pandasaurus Games has a new game available for pre-order, Big G Creative has released a new dice bluffing game, and new game company Unexpected Games has announced The Initiative.

A new year brings a host of new games to Kickstarter, including the newest game in the Mint Series, and several games designed for the Make 100 Kickstarter initiative. There is also a hidden roles game about thieves double-crossing each other, a new solo game, dinosaurs having a snack, and a skateboarding card game.

Roll a die and make a match, fail to do so and you can choose to roll another. Be the last player with any dice left in order to win the game.

It’s time for a standoff between the undercover cops and the criminals. Only problem: nobody knows whose side everybody else is on and you don’t want to accidentally shoot your friends.
