Mysterium is my favorite of 2015!
Can I participate? I’m from Brazil.
Please, tell me I can *___*
Hi, unfortunately at this time we can only ship to US and Canadian addresses. Sorry. 🙁
My favorite game of the year has to be Pandemic Legacy. My girlfriend and I are still trying to save the world, but the experience that the two of us are getting out of this game is one of (if not the) greatest we’ve ever had. High props to Matt Leacock and Rob Daviau, they knocked it out of the park.
I think Blood Rage tops my list as Favorite game of 2015.
I have been eyeballing Roll for the Galaxy forever! This would be awesome!
The Grizzled had a huge amount of play during 2015, don’t know what 2016’s most played one will be.
Would certainly try Fury of Dracula.
Love Roll the Galaxy and Fury of Dracula.
Blood Rage was a good time!
Roll for the Galaxy looks fun!
Definitely Pandemic Legacy for me!
Not sure if I used the raffle page correctly but I am thrilled to try both XCOM and Three Kingdoms Redux! Thank you so much for the giveaway, even if I’ve been playing X-Wing all year 😀
Breath easy, I see your name in the entry list
Winning is always good.
Colt Express, Mysterium, & T.I.M.E. Stories were my favorites. They each scratch different gaming needs, but Colt Express got the most play time for us last year.
Do reprints count? If so my top of last year is Pax Porfiriana
Roll is my favorite!
We are loving Lanterns over here but have been wanting to try Roll for the Galaxy!
My favorite game this year is Baseball Highlights: 2045. But Blood Rage and Codenames were pretty close.
My favorite from 2015 is Baseball Highlights 2045…it’s a contender for my favorite game of all time. Mike Fitzgerald really outdid himself with that one.
Pandemic Legacy is our group’s favorite.
I’ve gotten to play Roll For The Galaxy once, got me interested in Race for the Galaxy and I don’t regret it one bit.
These games are all on my wishlist! I had a really great time with Discoveries: The Journals of Lewis & Clark.
Forbidden Stars. And Super Motherload. And Roll for the Galaxy. Too many good ones to pick! Hopefully Mysterium will make the list after I (hopefully) win the drawing!
My favorite of the year has been Colt Express.
Pandemic Legacy FTW!
7 Wonders Duel
My favorite of the year would be Roll for the Galaxy or Codenames, but I am excited to try Fury of Dracula.
Epic PVP: Fantasy is probably my favorite game I picked up in 2015
Favorite game last year was Mysterium. Fantastic game design concept mixed with brilliant art.
I didn’t play a ton of new games last year. Of the ones I did, I think Harbour gets the nod based on number of plays. Fuse comes in second, but I’ve played it only a few times.
TIME Stories was probably my favourite of 2015.
Favorite new game of the year was actually Exploding Kittens. Pretty lightweight but it’s really the only thing that people wanted to play.
We’ve played a ton of RftG, and I’d love love love to try Fury of Dracula
Exoplanets has been my favorite recent game.
Pandemic Legacy is probably mine, but with so many good games I can’t really complain 🙂
I haven’t played many 2015 games, but Copper Country was fulfilled this year!
XCOM looks fun
I loved above and below and specter ops
Pandemic Legacy still my game of the year – filling me with dread each time I played.
Dead of Winter was our game groups favorite game of 2015. Thanks for the contest guys!
T.I.M.E. Stories is the one that stood out for me. There were a lot of great games, but that was a new experience that some of my non-gaming friends really go into.
Mysterium and Fury of Dracula were fantastic
I loved Dead of Winter
Broom Service was my favorite game of 2015!
Between Two Cities.
Now my go to gateway game!
My favorite game of 2015 was Blood Rage, although Champions of Midgard was a close second. The year of the vikings, I guess!! 🙂
I really really want to try xcom!
Codenames was the fav of 2015 and most played.
My favorite from this year is Alchemists. But I’d love to try Mysterium.
New to the hobby and Pandemic is my favorite game of 2016 so far. In 2015 it was Codenames.
all the games!!!
So many great games, but Roll for the Galaxy and Codenames are at the top of my list. It’s hard to choose between two very different games!
XCOMMMMM
Really looking forward to Punderdome!
I want all of them!!
Fury is the best!
My favorite of 2015 is Ashes: Rise of the Phoenixborn
I Love the selection you have picked. Xcom is a really cool and different from the rest.
What’s more fun than giving away a pile of games? Winning the giveaway! *crosses fingers*
My favorite of 2015 was Machi Koro Millionaire’s Row!
Mysterium!
Favorite of 2015 is The Voyages of Marco Polo.
Codenames
Pandemic Legacy was my game of the year.
Roll for the Galaxy is my favorite.
I would love to get my hands on any of those. I played Mysterium once and loved it.
My favorite game of 2015 was The Gallerist
I think that alchemists was my favorite game from 2015, but that might be because I haven’t opened pandemic legacy yet.
Codenames is my most played and favorite of 2015
For me my favorite game of 2015 is Raiders of the North Sea
Codenames!
I’m not sure which was my favorite, but Viticulture: Essential Edition was way up there, as well as Far Space Foundry.
My favorite has probably been Forbidden Stars.
My favorite game of 2015 has been Flick Em Up!
My favorite from 2015 was Dig Down Dwarf 🙂
Hi, I’m here for the free games. 🙂
X-Wing Miniatures is still my current favorite game!
Favorite Game was Pathfinder Adventure Card Game: Skulls and Shackles (not released in 2015, but the favorite I played then!).
Mysterium and Argent: The Consortium are the winners for me.
Super excited for roll for the galaxy and fury of dracula:)
Tiny epic galaxies! (Which originally autocorrected to’ tiny epic haggis’, maybe an idea for the next game in the series).
My new game of the year was Colt Express!
I haven’t had much access to the new games, but I quite enjoyed Broom Service!
I’m a huge fan of Mysterium. It’s one of the few games that my wife and I both like.
But I already have a copy, so if I win, I’d like Roll for the Galaxy. I’m not sure if I did the raffle right, though.
Of these games, I gotta say XCOM was my favorite in 2015. That being said, of every game released, Rum and Bones, Pandemic Legacy, and 7 Wonders Duel were the best for me!
Codenames was my favorite, with Grand Austria Hotel the runner up.
Great giveaway!
I’m surprised Codenames isn’t on there.
My game of the year is Blood Rage!
Codenames
Ducked out of games for a bit last year, but I’m really looking forward to playing Roll for the Galaxy.
Above and Below! Great game in 2015!
My favorite by far was Mysterium! I’ve been meaning to get a copy for myself so let’s hope I can get it this way~
My favorite game of 2015 is Codenames! Above & Below and The Grizzled are close runners-up.
My favorite of the year has been Pandemic Legacy. Still many that I need to play including those in this giveaway. 😀
My favorite was Your Fired
I have been waiting for Mysterium to be reprinted! I want this game!
My game of the year could have possibly been XCOM, other than the fact that I can’t play it using my 6 Plus now… So, sorry FFG, but my vote goes to Blood Rage.
Mercs: Recon is definitely my favorite game of the year (so far).
I’m pretty much in love with the x-com franchise!
Mysterium looked interesting at GenCon, but unsure until I play it.
Technically, it’s a 2014 game, but the one I played the most in 2015 was Imperial Assault.
Currently woking our way through Pandemic Legacy: Season 1 and I adore it.
Favorite game of 2015 was Orleans!
I’ve been using your flowchart, it keeps telling me to play Roll for the Galaxy. And its been spot on every time.
Always have fun playing Codenames with a group and 7 Wonders: Duel is my 2015 go-to for a 2 player.
I don’t think I’ve played a 2015 game yet.
New edition of Catacombs!
I got into several new games in 2015, but I will go with Dead of Winter
Sushi Go! was one of my favourite game in 2015
Been playing Mysterium and Pandemic Legacy and love both, but really want to play Roll for the Galaxy!
Pandemic Legacy. Nothing else moved the genre forward like that.
All of those look like great games! Thanks for the giveaway! I’ve listed my favorite new-to-me games of 2015 here: http://gjjgames.blogspot.com/2015/12/the-10-best-new-to-me-games-of-2015.html
Super Motherload is my favorite game of 2015
castles of mad king ludwig
Wombat Rescue was the biggest hit of 2015 at our house
Great selection!
I’ve not gotten to start my copy of Pandemic Legacy yet or I might be saying that. Can I say the reprint of Mission Red Planet? That’s great.
my favorite game was Dead of Winter
Roll for the Galaxy is a great game. Our friends have it and I’m already thinking about picking up a copy for us. Despite them being the only people we game with.
Pandemic Legacy
Above & Below here as my favorite.
We tend to be a year behind in most of our game purchases, because we wait to see lots of reviews before buying. So I’m not sure which of our games came out in 2015… 7 Wonders Duel, I think? We definitely enjoyed that one.
T.I.M.E Stories was my favorite of the year, with Pandemic Legacy a close second. All of the games in this giveaway are on my list to get, so i hope i win! Thanks for such a great contest!
Pandemic: Legacy was the best gaming experience of the year.
Patchwork is the best game I’ve played this year so far,
I really enjoyed codenames!
My favorite game is Zombicide Black Plague.
So many great games. I have to say Codenames is my favorite right now.
My favorites were Rum & Bones and Blood Rage. I’d love a copy of Mysterium or Roll for the Galaxy!
Mysterium was my favorite game of 2015!
Looks great! Hope to win something!
Pandemic Legacy!
Awesome! I don’t have any of these yet, but want them all.
My favorite game this year is Baseball Highlights 2045. Haven’t tried any of the games on the list but sure hope I win so that all changes!
Pandemic Legacy was the big winner of 2015 for me!
I have enjoyed several games throughout 2015. However, I think Roll for the Galaxy was near the top.
Of the games our family has enjoyed this year, Sushi Go! is probably the most requested to hit the table.
Im loving the deception and bluffing games. Topping my list is Sheriff of Nottingham and Dead of Winter!!
Mysterium is great! (I already have that one, so I hope I win one of the others?) But my favorite of last year HAS to be Pandemic Legacy!!
My favorite game of 2015 at the moment is Mysterium.
Pandemic Legacy FTW
Haven’t played many new this year, so I guess I would say Tiny epic galaxies.
Burgle Bros has been an absolute blast.
Trickerion!
Favorite game this year has been Splendor, we’ve gotten the most playtime out of it.
Fury of Dracula is definitely my favorite from 2015 and I don’t even own it! I so want that game!
Blood Rage
Mysterium is awesome!
Thanks for the opportunity!
Wow! Great selection of games. Would love to own Mysterium.
Of the 2015 games I’ve played so far, Orleans is probably my favorite.
Best game of 2015 has gotta be Pandemic Legacy. Thanks for the contest!
Fury of Dracula looks amazing
I would love a copy of Fury of Dracula! 🙂 Thanks for the giveaway!
P.S. Best game of 2015 = Pandemic Legacy 🙂
My favorite game of 2015 is actually Pandemic (with some Forbidden Island as a #2) – my wife and I seldom get the brand newest games, so it’s what we discovered in a given year.
Time Stories! A game experience like no other.
X-Com is my favourite!
Between Two Cities and pie in the face are my favorites.
Roll for the galaxy is so great played so many times
Thanks for the giveaway. Pandemic Legacy
I didn’t play many 2015 games but my favourite was Arboretum.
The best game with my kids was Loony Quest.
I will also vote for Between Two Cities as my favorite.
My favorite game of 2015 was La Granja. No, Orleans. No, La Granja. No…
My favorite new acquisition of 2015 was Android Netrunner. My most played new acquisition of 2015 was Fairy Tale! The most fun I’ve had playing a game so far in 2016 has been Dancing Eggs: my 5-year old son laughed so hard he peed his pants. I love games.
My favorite game of 2015 was King of Tokyo. Though it was published in 2011, my group just recently started playing it, and it is a really fun game!
been looking for a copy of xcom or mysterium!
Pingback: Game Bandit | Purple Pawn
My favorite game last year was Nippon! ^.^
Pandemic Legacy is my favorite of last year. Tokaido is a close second!
Mysterium is super-good! I also really enjoyed Champions of Midgard and Time Stories.
Codenames definitely got the most play in 2015
🙁 that there’s no giveaway for Three Kingdoms Redux
There will be!
My favourite game of 2015/16 may be The Gallerist… or Food Chain Magnate… or maybe Nippon. Tough call. I really need to win a copy of Three Kingdoms Redux to make sure it isn’t better than them all!
Thanks for the giveaway!
Those are some fantastic titles, and only one of them have found their way to my vicinity!
This must needs be corrected.
I’d have to go with Pandemic Legacy as my favorite game of 2015.
My favorite game of 2015 was Colt Express!
I have three in different categories… for longevity, I’d vote for The voyages of Marco Polo, for experience pandemic legacy and for ease to introduce people new to modern board games Codenames.
I guess I should have said *”of the games released in 2015 that I’ve played ”
Mysterium would be my pick of the year of games I have yet to play that I’m most excited about potentially winning.
I’m loving Gold West right now, but picking my favorite board game is harder than picking my favorite child. 🙂
Gold West…. Today, anyway.
Pandemic Legacy for the win!
I’m not sure I have an actual favorite, but I am really fond of Codenames, not because I love it so much, but I love that it’s getting so many more people to want to play games in the groups that I frequent.
Can’t get enough Codenames!
My favourite game for 2015 is Spirits of the Rice Paddy.
Codenames. Great fun. Try playing with a group where English is not their 1st language.
Definitely They Come Unseen!
I hope I win! Mooooarrrr games!!!
Has to be Above and Below
Aw, yeah 🙂 I love giveaways!
Colt Express is my favorite 2015 game!
Mysterium is fantastic. I’m surprised it got so little love on GotY lists.
Yeah ! Thanks a lot for the giveway
Steampunk Rally is really neat, and easy to play with new players!
Favorite game of 2015: Deception: Murder in Hong Kong
Codenames was a hit with our group!
So many games….uhmmmm favorite?? Mysterium is definitely one of them!
Pandemic: Legacy is my favorite from 2015.
And thanks for the chance to win some great games.
Dead Of Winter has been my favorite new game of 2015.
Roll for the Galaxy for me
Codenames. Definitely. Love it.
My favorite game of 2015 is probabily a toss up between T.I.M.E Stories and Bloodrage.
Xia legends of a drift system or alchemists were awesome games that came out last year(I think??).
My favorite game of 2015 is Codenames.
My favorite game ever is Fantasy Flights X-Wing . Cannot wait for Ghost to come out!
I have been hooked on World of Tanks for Xbox One. The grind to get top tier tanks and upgrades. Just a lot of fun.
I really liked Codenames as well. And I know it’s older but I am just getting into Imperial Assault and X-Wing.
Above & Below has soared to the top of my group’s list.
My favorite game released in 2015 was Castellion.
Favorite game of 2015 is T.I.M.E. Stories. Had two of the most fun gaming sessions i’ve ever had playing the two scenarios of this game…can’t wait for the next ones…
Another vote for Pandemic Legacy.
My wife and I can’t get enough of Patchwork. She beats me every time, but it’s been getting closer and closer!
Mysterium looks neato!
Magic the gathering Arena of the Planeswalkers
I want to win!
Magic the Gathering was the most played this past year by me.
Pandemic Legacy! Still only in May.
Favorite game of 2015 is probably Roll for the Galaxy, and I say that as a guy who haaaates Race for the Galaxy.
Codenames
I have a hard time picking between Roll, Isle of Skye, Between Two Cities, and Gold West. I’d probably settle on Roll just because there’s so much to it without being unmanageable.
