I was pleasantly surprised to see my own game, Golpher, on a Dice Tower top 10. Thank you Chris Yi! This list also contains quite a few hidden gems. I have most of the games and am on the search for a copy of Pipoca.

Who wants to see some awesome-looking game pitches? These are the finalists for the 2026 Cardboard Edison Award!!! cardboardedison.com/award
I enjoyed it, game is mostly similar to Hearts with a few rounds having you win tricks to give or get rid of points. You also score based on the height of your chips rather than total value.
One week until the Game Market West designer application deadline! It's a tabletop game market for indie designers to showcase and sell their games. Chat with special guest @mattleacock.bsky.social about your designs.

How’s Fearless?
Tokyo Game Market Fall 2025 haul has finally arrived!

Got to play these wildly innovative trick-takers: Ouroboros Trick, 10/12 Heart, Malumiere. My favorite was between Ouroboros (lose if you run out of cards to play) and Malumiere (guess the number you’re playing based on the size of symbol on the card).
Just saw Here Lies was in Jamey's top 10 of the year:

Vroom Vroom Quokka: Second play and I still believe it's the best bluffing trick-taker, possibly ever that will be made. It's so well done with showing one half of the card (either number or suit) and having the bus on the board move to determine the trump suit (based on powers of each number).
Happy holidays! I played Magical Athlete, Sliced Anglerfish, Robokraft, Vroom Vroom Quokka, Tricky Kids, Maze Makers, String Railway, Soda Jerk, Bested Another Time - all games were at the 4 player count.
The BGG trick-taking newsletter for December is up!
