It’s been an odd year: SVWAG reckon it was a great year for games, but many of us have had a combination of difficulty in playing at all and a generally lacklustre feel about new releases. Even so, The Pearple Have Spoken! # Best Game I suspect not a huge surprise, but this one’s clearly very popular, and possibly helped by the forum’s [ongoing PBF campaign](https://discussion.tekeli.li/t/oath-pbf-my-kingdom-for-a-horse/2670) (thanks to @Benkyo for putting lots of work into that): it’s **Oath**. ![image](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/2X/d/d555f9df4c6c8de3ee114a2560afb711f58ebbb1.jpeg) (Photo by BGG:Hipopotam, cc-by-sa) # Best Cooperative Game With something of a twist from the fixed structure of its first iteration, the clear winner here is **The Crew: Mission Deep Sea**. ![image](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/2X/d/dbcc16b67f6c69e4be8c9c2c48d9309c61ea1a96.jpeg) (Photo by BGG:kalchio, cc-by-sa-nc) # Best Heavy Game The new Kemet is a strong contender, but the winner here is also **Oath**. ![image](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/2X/e/eab714ba3bdff3a0596092dd25f82ed0cadd7225.jpeg) (Photo by BGG:The Innocent, cc-by-sa) # Best Light Game Some competition here (and some people clearly have an idea of a light game that isn’t the same as others’), but in the end trains always prevail: **Railroad Ink Challenge**. ![image](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/2X/b/b6ae7a722bcadd172b632f2398b78851f4949841.jpeg) (Photo by BGG:kalchio, cc-by-sa-nc) # Best Soloable Game Trains always prevail. But not completely: the joint winner with **Railroad Ink Challenge** is **Sleeping Gods**. ![image](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/2X/3/34a72185dc31701a187e412baec53afcf873f379.jpeg) (Photo by BGG:kalchio, cc-by-sa-nc) # Best Thematic Game Really, what _is_ a thematic game? Well, **Oath** apparently. ![image](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/2X/2/2512064c27dd7f1a38d84bb14f4d0e6aafe601f9.jpeg) (Photo by BGG:The Innocent, cc-by-sa) # Best Game Artwork And, well, fair enough. **Oath**. ![image](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/2X/6/67cd9d0487c9a118fbb7050ff38cffcbe161b573.jpeg) (Photo by BGG:Hipopotam, cc-by-sa) # Best Expansion Trains! But not completely: **Railroad Ink: Lush Green Edition** shares this honour with **Chronicles of Crime: 2400**. (But nobody on BGG, including the publisher, has uploaded a freely reusable image from that, so instead here’s a train.) ![image](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/2X/f/fac0b2cdb63222cb892b022168ec82a10f73d930.jpeg) # Erik Tengblad Award A perenially popular category: the best game from an earlier year that we didn’t find out about until 2021. Another shared victory here: **Spirit Island** (one of my own first-played-in-2021) stands next to classic Knizia **Tigris and Euphrates**. ![image](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/2X/7/7dd3d2fb05d780b2e6af5ff81af436f4533445dd.jpeg) (Photo by BGG:The Innocent, cc-by-sa) ![image](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/2X/b/bd79cd217e292899e02b1718337b6308b2aca67e.jpeg) (Photo by BGG:kilroy\_locke, cc-by-sa) # Best Game Review There were some very good ones this year, but I was unsurprised to see this going to Tom Brewster’s SU&SD review of **Oath**. ![image](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/2X/1/12bbeede0af695bac7149b2caae54fc2768dc022.jpeg) # Minutewalt Award The best socially distanced game: old favourite **Twilight Struggle**. ![image](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/2X/1/16d4ffca6c4ee943b67a14f4b6dfb9beb6a1da8e.jpeg) (Photo by BGG:ohgeetee, cc-by-sa) # pillbox Award The game we’re most anticipating, but haven’t had a chance to get enough people over to play yet… is **Eclipse: Second Dawn for the Galaxy**. ![image](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/2X/3/3f63bf63c43f8f43abe72b3bebc5be65fb2c6327.jpeg) (Photo by BGG:blownfreaks, cc-by-sa) # anti-pillbox Award And the game we _have_ finally had the chance to get to the table, and it was worth it… is shared by **Hansa Teutonica** and **Xia: Legends of a Drift System**. But I’ve just _done_ a picture of spaceships on hex tiles, so here’s some brown. ![image](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/2X/0/0cc940459c01395883571ade7a6c00aea9680bfc.jpeg) (Photo by BGG:zgabor, public domain) # Mature Pearple And finally, harking back five years to the best game of 2016… my word, some very good stuff here. But in the end it came down to **Flamme Rouge**. ![image](https://discussion.tekeli.li/uploads/default/original/2X/e/e35209df664a1ec7a4c60a67ee88f2db37bfb666.jpeg) (Photo by BGG:akapastorguy, cc-by-sa) Many thanks to everyone who nominated or voted. Power to the Pearple! ---

Kemet: Blood and Sand. I guess it changes up the map a little, but I do not know if there are any other differences. ---

> [@COMaestro](#): > > any other differences. - New, clear iconography and rebalanced tiles - Took the best parts of Ta-Seti (black pyramids and tiles) and incorporated it into the base game - Blank divine intervention cards so it’s harder to tell when someone is actually using one - All the 1.5 rules, including the improved player-order mechanic - Variable map for different player counts (you block off parts with sandstorms and such), and ports that do something And likely a lot of little other stuff and kickstarter expansions.

I enjoy Oath 🙂 I think the campaign run by @Benkyo here on the forums is at least partially to blame for it sweeping the awards. Also it’s an excellent game—in the niche it created for itself. Will I play Oath as much as I play Railroad Ink Challenge? Never 😉 Thanks @RogerBW for hosting, organizing and writing up the awards 🙂 It was a great read.
