Look at all those wonderful games listed! Hey, a list that I've actually played some of the games on, weeeee!

True - I have played (or am playing) 3 games on the list!

Only 2.

I have been on the fence all this time about Gamedec which would have made 3, but there wasn't much positive feedback here and the reaction elsewhere was 'meh'. Steam seems to give a better feedback now ("Very positive").

Maybe another year, after a thorough backlog clean-up. ;)

Good old Europe
I own 12 games of this list, but I had only time to play a few of them.

3 from the list for me.

Dropped Solasta since its not my cup of tea. Hoping future community modules will lure me back.

I will be playing WotR for a long while yet since I still have 3-6 planned runs to complete ;) I love this game

Wildermyth was an unexpected surprise. The initial illusion/magic has been dispelled quite a lot but I'm still enjoying it with hubby. Devs are continuing to add more events and working on 6th module, so thumbs up :)

I would have thought Encased would have been on there. For someone who doesn't care for TB games I am playing two of them - Encased and Wildermyth. I do play WOTR of course but only RTWP.

Seems silly that Gamedec is on a top turn-based game list. As I understand it there is no combat; it appears to play similarly to Disco Elysium.

I suppose they'd argue it's not exactly real-time either as you can take as long as you want to choose your dialogue options...
