Probably the slowest year for board games I've had since I started tracking (infosec.pub)

2025 was a real kick in the butt so I just didn't have as much time for games, plus I've been playing more 40k in general which I always waffle on if I should include in here or not.

My group's made some good progress on Frosthaven and we're hoping to actually complete it next year, and another group and I finished Clank 2 (and also finished Clank Legacy 1 finally! But it doesn't show on here because my wife and I had a single game left, but the couple we play with moved so it took over a year to get that last game in).

We also went to Japan this year, which ruled, and Let's Go To Japan has been a blast to play post that trip.

What have you all been playing this year???

Mine.

I'm not sure why Can't Stop is on there as I've only played it on Yucata and it hasn't been on there for a few years. Maybe some missing plays imported and have ended up being attributed to this year.

Dang, I feel like I need to check out Faraway now...

[–] i_am_not_a_robot@feddit.uk 2 points 1 week ago

Faraway is excellent! It also doesn't take very long to play, so it's the current go-to when time is limited.

Playing cards in one order and scoring them in the other is fun!

Board game arena maybe, if you sync from there?

Could be, but I don't think I've been on it all year. I don't use BGA much as a I find the silly time limits on taking turns annoying.
