I just happened to see a popular website published their '100 Must-Read Books of 2025' and it reminded me that December is swiftly approaching and that's prime time for end-of-year listicles.
Which publications do you trust to give you a good breakdown of books / movies / music / games / etc. across the year?

There's a new release for bgg-client!
I've added validation, and have done a lot of work behind the scenes to ensure data integrity, more consistent typing, and better type-safety.

Aside from playing with friends, what are people's favourite ways to prototype/playtest physical board and card games? I've been sitting on a pretty fun prototype for a long time now and need ideas of what to do with it!

As someone who is already into tabletop games, open-source, and Shadowrun, how did I not know about Netrunner (a community-managed cyberpunk TCG) until recently??? All I need are people to teach the game and this will basically be the summation of everything I am.
The sets contain the full cardsets, so no gacha nonsense. You can buy the cards from the non-profit publisher, or you can print-and-play for free. Proxies are legal at all levels of play.
This is...completely agreeable?

I don't have any big qualms with the board game industry; designing and marketing games is one of the best uses of capitalism, in my opinion. But I am firmly in the camp of thought that games aren't the stuff in the box, they're the rules and ideas that define and frame the challenge. If your game is a real game, then those ideas are public.

It's been too long since our Boardgame Rehoming ceremony. Let's get to it!
The games we are giving away are listed in this Google Sheet. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gk0PEoxL3u7HxAv6I_3qhe2IJQhQManLEwlGSDgdwUQ/edit?usp=sharing
If you live in the 48 contiguous US states, we will send you 3-6ish games (depending on sizes) for the cost of USPS shipping plus a little for shipping materials.
If you live in NYC, you can come get them from our apartment. (We can't hand-deliver them to everyone.)
Claim 3-6 games by responding to this thread with your choices.
As well as we're able, we do this first-come-first-served, or at least first-acknowledged-first-served. (We are two people.)
If you want recommendations, please ask! @mxtiffanyleigh and/or I have played all of these and would love to make sure you get games that are right for your group.
We rehome these because we want them to be played. Don't just claim stuff to sell them; post photos of them out on your gaming table! It helps us to let go, knowing they are loved.
Review: The candlelight flickers across the damp stone walls, casting long shadows that stretch and twist. You huddle closer to the table, scanning the cards laid out like pages from a forbidden story, the musky scent of ink and paper mixing with the chill in the air. Every dice roll echoes forebodingly in the quiet room, a tiny heartbeat of suspense. Each time you put pencil to paper, you mark the fate of you and your companions. Then, all of a sudden, you realise that you're so close. You're about to Escape the Dark Castle by Alex Crispin, Thomas Pike and James Shelton from Themeborne with art by Alex Crispin.
