Hi all, I've been working on a list of 100 games to play before turning 100 for around half a year and it is now published on BGG! List has the full writeup with the reason for each game as well as alternates. Unlike a top 100 list, this list prioritizes covering the breadth of what the hobby has to offer over how good a game might be. That being said, these games are excellent and show up on many people's top 100 lists. Games are sorted from least to most complex. Each game was played at least once and most were played multiple times. The original list included over 300 nominees which were debated upon, then trimmed with the help of friends and family. Games are included based on the following criteria in the following order of importance: *1. Is the game worth playing at least once?* *2. Does the game cover something that is different enough from what is already on the list?* *3. Is the game the most iconic representation of what it covers?*
Let me know what you think! Is there anything you would include or remove? What would your criteria be for making a 100 to play list? Thank you for checking this out!
