Over the last few years a lot of new board games have been
release. So many that aside from games
like Settlers of Catan or the variety of Ticket to Ride it has been hard to get
any older games out on the table. I do
not believe that this is because these games are bad compared to the current
crop of games. In fact just like at any
other time there both good and bad games that are published. Because there are more of them it is harder
to wade through them to find the 10% gems.
Of the 70 or so new games that I have played I can think of five that I
would like to add to my collection.
The other thing to contend with is that sometimes a game
that you thought was great when it first came out, you look at years later and
it has turned into a stinker because you have found another game that does what
that game attempted much better.
