Ooh, a fellow listmaker. I've started compiling a "past three decade" list as well, mostly for keeping a game kit inventory, but your tracking is way more dilligent. I've starte only last year and have been going from memory and old kits and you can imagine how that's going. Tried a few online tools but none are actually satisfactory for stat purposes, so it's still in spreadsheet form.

Anyway thank you for the great read, it's fun to compare and contrast with someone else's opinions on a couple hundred games.

Edit: Seeing as you liked Frostpunk dare I recommend Ixion? Different vibe but same type of tight decision making and great story.

Edit edit: You have a typo on AoE 2/3
