Top 100 Games as of 2020 – #70 to #61
As we creep closer to the halfway point of my top 100 games, the variety of games begins increase, and dexterity games start to appear! Spoiler alert, I love dexterity games. Look forward to seeing more and more as the list counts down! In a wild departure from last time, this section of the list has no economic farming games!
Takenoko – Get Your Damn Dirty Paws Off My Bamboo!
ardboard within cardboard. Little did she know that she was introducing me to a hobby that I would fall deep into, hard and fast.
Top 100 Games as of 2020 – #80 to #71
This week in my top 100 games series we’ll see plenty of sheep, birds and even a panda. We’ll be at odds with the weather as it controls us in Takenoko, and we’ll try to control the floods in Lowlands. Let’s stop beating around the bush and get to it!
Qwirkle
Qwirkle, aside from being awkward to spell when you’re sleep deprived, is a tile placement game for two to four players. You begin the game with 6 tiles in your hand. Each tile has two attributes, a shape and a colour. On your turn you place any number of tiles in a single line as long as they every tile in that line shares one attribute (either all the same colour, or all the same shape). You earn one point for every tile you place from your hand onto the table.
Paperback Adventures – Slay the Novel
I really like Paperback Adventures. Were I younger, I’d say I “like like” Paperback Adventures. It’s the kind of game that lived rent free in my mind for days following my first couple plays, which is always a good sign. It’s challenging, entertaining, and it utilizes a theme that I truly enjoy. Having said all of that, I admit that I am biased. I love deck builders, I love word games, and I really enjoy Tim Fowers’ designs. For people who share my tastes, this is an excellent game.
Journal #3 – Bullet♥︎ – Boss Rush
Bullet♥︎ exploded into into my life from seemingly nowhere and consumed my soul for nearly 3 weeks. I was drawn in by the promise of fast paced shoot-em-up (SHMUP) action and a gorgeous anime aesthetic. What I got instead was a compelling puzzle game where the player manipulates sliding discs to match patterns while learning how to best use each heroine’s abilities to defeat the multitude of bosses.
Top 100 Games as of 2020 – #90 to #81
Welcome to part two in my Top 100 games series, going through the next 10 games in my list! I’ll be the first to admit that when it comes time to pick a game, the games listed here aren’t necessarily at the forefront of my mind (almost as if there were at least 80 other games ahead of them), but I can tell you that if any of these games get suggested, I am down to play and know that I’ll have a great time doing so.a
Paperback – A Deck Builder for Book Worms
Paperback was pitched to me as a “Scrabble, but deck building,” which sparked my curiosity and intrigue just right. You see, when my wife and I first started dating, we were long distance. We would spend hours on Skype playing Scrabble online, and listening to a playlist that we created together. Scrabble became a pretty integral part of our relationship early on, so hearing about a game promising to mix that with the deck builder genre using a theme about writing books made me wonder… Was Paperback designed directly for me?
