This year I'll again be participating in the 52 Game Challenge, proposed by Southern Starr Games, where I try to play at least one tabletop game with my family and friends every week. Last year I knocked that out of the water by playing 200 different games, and many of those multiple times during multiple weeks. So this year I'll try to out do that. Also, my 6 year old son has decided to have his own gaming goal this year as well. He wants to play games 100 times in 2016 (100 individual plays). So I'll be tracking his progress here as well.
I challenge you to do the same with your family! Just one game a week, where players are unplugged and interacting. See how it changes your family for the better! Post the games you play to Facebook or any other social media site with the hashtag #52GameChallenge
So here's a list of the games I've played each week throughout 2016. (I'll put a * next to games that were played with someone other than my kids and/or wife, and a + next to games my family played without me.) Italicized games were played by me for the first time this year. Bold games are games I played for the very first time ever. Each week I'll also list a series of numbers in the format of 1|2|3|4|5|6 - 7|8|9|10 where the numbers are:
Week 53 - 12/29- 12/31 - 11|11|8|7|167|237 - 1|1|248|113
