In this episode, we take stock of what we played this year, what we didn’t get to, and what we’re looking forward to playing next (just like we did last year).

Our lists here aren’t comprehensive, because wow there are a lot of games worth playing, but we do try to highlight some of our favorites, and especially some of the games that we think deserve more attention and love than they’ve gotten.

Come join us as we look back, forward, and all around, and propose some totally hypothetical games we’d love to see. (I’m looking in your direction, Untitled Goose MMO).
