Best Board Games of 2021

Thanks to actually getting to a boardgame convention in the middle of the year, and also having an awesome group of designers to play games with, I managed to play about 40 new (to me) board games in 2021. Here is a quick rundown of some of my favourites. Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion. The original Gloomhaven has always seemed appealing to me. However, the sheer size was enough to cause me some hesitancy in taking that leap. Enter Gloomhaven: Jaws of the Lion. This game has essentially the same rules as the original, but in a more digestible format. It achieves this by slowly introducing the rules through 5 scenarios that serve as in-game tutorials.

Got Time?

 2-4 players, 30 minutes play time.  Got Time? is a game of selecting polyomino tiles and placing them on your personal board. The tiles may contain 1 of 5 different clocks.

Each grain that falls allow the player to move along the track in the direction indicated on the hourglass. Just flip the hourglass to move back in the other direction! The player takes the tile from the position they land and adds it to their personal board. If the tile contains a pile of sand, they can add a grain of sand to their hourglass, allowing for greater range of movement in future turns. Score points by grouping sets of unique clocks next to each other on the board. To score a group, the player must also take a grain of sand from their hourglass, and place it in on one of the clocks in the group. However, they may only place sand on the last ti
