  1. Old World This was the highlight off not only this year but pretty much any game released since Covid.
  2. Oxygen Not Included: Spaced Out DLC. A very nice addition, if just for the QOL, improvements in the base game. I’ve just scratched the surface (hum not really most of the game is well below the surface), but it definitely satisfies my builder itch.
  3. Remnants of the Precursor. Very nicely done remake of MOO1. AI is bit disappointing and I only started playing it in 2022, but it since it was released at the end of Dec. If i don’t vote for it this year, I can’t next year.
  4. Surviving the Aftermath: Competent, but unimaginative
  5. Humankind I probably would have liked this game more if it wasn’t released at the same time as Old World. A- for looks, B+ for originality C- D for everything else

Dropped . New World: A for looks, B+ for crafting depths. D for everything else.
