Introducing Game of the Month

As you may have already noticed, something new is afoot: Game of the Month! What is it? In a nutshell, it’s, you know, Game of the Month. Each month Tabletop will be selecting a game that has previously been written about and bestowing upon it this highest of honors. For the duration of that month it will get special attention, not only by being featured on the sidebar, but you also might expect to see more games or articles related to it.

Take, for example, this month’s game: Hex (in case you didn’t already see that). Expect to see a few more connection games soon, perhaps some Hex variants, and, if there is enough interest, a beginner’s guide to Hex strategy. I think that, if people better understood the game, they might be more willing to try it.

As always, if you have any thoughts or suggestions, just let me know -- there is now email contact information on the bottom of the page so you don’t have to go through Twitter if you don’t want to.
