Draft Mechanic Episode #104: 2018 Redux There’s no better time to look back on a year than halfway through the next one! In our mid-year tradition, we take a second look at our Top Games lists of the previous year and discuss how they’ve changed since January. There’s new games, moved games and all sorts of movement on the list! We’ve got a kickstarter preview of The Alwaysgreen Garden, plus a fresh batch of recent plays as well.
