While I'll resume regular posts before you know it, I thought I'd kick things off by pointing out that BGG's game release catalogs for January and February 2021 and for March and April 2021 are both live. I've been updating these lists with info from publishers that have completed my survey, and I'll keep adding to them as I receive info about other new releases. (If you represent a publisher and haven't received a survey link, please email me — address at the top of this blog — and I'll send it to you.)
Ideally we can all start attending game conventions once again before the year is out, and if that does happen, then I'll resume things like the SPIEL '21 Preview. Until then, however, I'll use these bimonthly release lists to highlight what you might be able to find in local stores or order from publishers and stores in places far away.
Someone — I believe El Whitcombe at Deep Water Games — said that every game delivered in 2020 was a miracle, and as you might expect, lots of games originally scheduled for release in late 2020 have found their way onto these lists for Jan-Apr 2021. I wish their publishers all the best in managing whatever unexpected situations might still arise, and I hope that you can also make the best from whatever unexpected situations you face this year.
