Another year is wrapping up so it is time for me to announce my game of the year nominees! A quick reminder here. This is one of the only times all year that I am 100% subjective with my choices. These are not the games that I think are the most innovative, brilliant mechanically or artistically, or anything like that...though they may be one or more of the aforementioned. These are simply the games that brought me the most joy throughout the year. Period. That is it.
