We will be live at PAX West 2024 Aug 30 in Seattle with a classic "pretends to be a listicle to get you into the room" panel titled:

The 39 Games You Must Play
Fri, Aug 30 @ 3:00pm in the Frog Theatre

These may not be the top 39 games ever designed nor are they the top 39 influential or otherwise important games. If you aspire to really understand games or if you have visions of designing your own these are 39(ish) games that if you play them will give you the widest possible perspective on what it means to make a good game (and what "good" even means).

This is a new iteration of The 40 Games You Must Play we did back in 2019, but with a new list of games to discuss! Be warned: some of them can't easily be played.
