We Found The Best Year Ever in Board Games

What was the greatest year in the history of board gaming? We're settling the debate once and for all! In this episode of Board Stupid, we're putting the heavy hitters—1995, 2004, 2012, 2018, and more—into a brutal tournament bracket.

We judge these years based on their seminal releases (think Catan, Ticket to Ride, and Root), the sheer quality of their 'top 10' lists, and how much they changed the hobby. Will the 'Golden Age' of the mid-2010s reign supreme, or will an underdog year take the crown?
