Do you have a suggestion for the top 50 best board games?

The top 50 of the best board games is of course a list that is shaped by our personal gaming tastes. Overall, we tried to find a fair mix of frequently played board games and titles that are currently often discussed in the scene. When selecting the titles, we were guided by our opinions and those of other players.
Trending topics from internet forums and social media also served as factors for the selection. However, pure sales figures are not decisive, otherwise classics such as Mensch ärgere dich nicht or Monopoly would appear as fixed sizes among the 50 best board games - which is not the case in our top list.
