Vuosiäänestyksen äänestäjämäärä nousi kymmenellä viime vuodesta, eli äänestäjiä oli 201 ja ääniä annettiin 1232.
Voittajan suhteen ei tapahtunut muutosta. Eclipse veti lopulta selkeän etumatkan. 7 Wonders johti alussa pitkään, mutta joutui lopulta tyytymään jaettuun kakkossijaan Dominionin kanssa.
Vuoden uutuudet
Vuoden paras uutuus löytyy tuloslistan jaetulta kuudennelta sijalta. Castles of Mad King Ludwig ei yllättänyt minua millään tavalla, sen verran suosittu peli se on ollut. Muita menestyjiä uutuuksista olivat Dead of Winter ja Star Wars: Imperial Assault.
Splendor nappasi viime vuonna varaslähdönomaisesti joitakin ääniä, mutta yleisempään jakeluun peli tuli vasta loppuvuodesta. Niinpä se pääsi varsinaisesti juhlimaan listoilla vasta tänä vuonna. Tulokset puhuvat puolestaan: viides sija on komea tulos ja osoittaa, että Splendorissa on potkua.
Love Letterin menestys mietitytti viime vuonna ja oli mukava huomata, että tämä laatufilleri jatkoi hyvää kulkuaan mahtuen edelleen kymmenen kärkeen.
Alisuoriutujat
Spiel des Jahres -voittajien kehno menestys jatkuu. Camel Cup ei juhlinut tälläkään kertaa, eikä tämänvuotinen Colt Expresskään napannut kuin muutaman äänen. Vuoden peli -osastolta Splendor eli viime vuoden vuoden aikuistenpeli menestyi poikkeuksellisen hienosti, Battle Sheep sen sijaan ei pärjännyt laisinkaan. Tämän vuoden Vuoden pelit saivat kaikki muutamia ääniä.
Perinteisistä kärkipeleistä alusta asti tuloslistoilla ollut Carcassonne notkahti ensimmäistä kertaa ikinä kymmenen kärjen ulkopuolelle. Kahdesta äänestä jäi kiinni, eli menee sattuman piikkiin. Viime vuonna top-kympissä debytoinut Caverna jäi nyt kauas kärjestä. Agricola on siis tämän pelisuvun ykkönen.
