Top 200 Board Games Overview (#160-151)

 

2020 #160

New Stephen Feld game that I believe is going to hold fast in the long run. I don't see it moving up but I do see it staying firm around this place next year as other games fall.

This game took a huge 96 spot tumble down the list this year, even though it marks the first time I ever won a game! They're both fun games but didn't get but one play this year and I think that'll be the case going forward with my growing collection. This game falls again in 2021.

With all my predictions of games falling down the list, it's time to start saying which ones I think will rise and this is one for sure I think will do it. Since my review I've played it several times and it gets better each time! I think this game is a sure bet to rise this year on the list.

This game made a comeback on my list. Straight up fun whenever it comes out. Don't know how it will fare this year on the list but since I'm making predictions I'll say it inches up a little more this year.

Big rise for this game but I think it hits its peak and won't rise any higher on my list. I do love this game.

Surprised by the rise in the ranks last year for this game due to the AP problem I always seem to have with my group whenever it comes out. But there's no denying this is a fantastic game. Though I doubt it ever sees my Top 100 again I'm going to say it moves back down the list in 2021.

Fresh new game added to my list but I don't think it has the staying power as other do and will start to slide a little after its freshman year. The theme is great and the game very interesting. I just have a feeling it could get lost in the shuffle this year.

This game battened down the hatches and held fast on my list, crawling up 2 spots after everything was said and done. Solid game that's out of print now and have folks asking a fortune for. That's sad really because it's a great game that only got removed from my Top 100 due to another pirate game entering my collection. I think the fleet stays here again in 2021.

This one I think will move down. I haven't played it since the first of last year and though I do plan on bringing it out on game night I'm not sure how it'll perform so I'll play it safe and say it moves down.

I'm going to start making a challenge for me to at least call 2 or 3 of these each post as "rising" since it appears all I'm doing is preaching gloom and doom. So with that said, this one will move UP the list. Beautiful looking game and components. The game play is there as well which further cements my position.
