Players will take on the role of a wandering adventurer with their own special set of skills and their own reasons for travelling to this dark corner of the world. Gloomhavenįrom Publisher: “Gloomhaven is a game of Euro-inspired tactical combat in a persistent world of shifting motives. We do receive a small commission when you purchase a game through our links below. In case you’re interested in seeing some more data details or even possibly purchasing the game, I have included that information below. Interesting in seeing more data or learning more about a game? None of the twenty board games had a score for Wyoming.Rather than trying to include ties in the map, in the event of a tie I have included on the map the game that had a score above 0 for the most states (in other words, the game scored the same in the state and is more popular in other states).
The entire list of games is then limited to just the top 20 rated games (using BoardGameGeek’s rankings). The idea is that we can see how popular games released last year are in each state. This list focused on games published in 2017 and looks at searches performed so far in 2018.To elaborate, Wyoming having a sad face does not mean that no searches for any of the games were performed, but instead, the number of searches are so low compared to the total number of searches that the Google Trends’ score is 0.Īnd some notes regarding the data and presentation.Based on my understanding, it is not a simple ratio (# of searches for term in the state / # of total searches in the state), but that explanation is close enough for our purposes. Google Trends allows you to see the ranking for a search term by state, relative to the number of searchers performed in that state.Some quick explanations on how Google Trends works One caveat: Since This War is Mine is based off a video game, there may some skewing of the data with the video game and board game searches being conflated.Īnd if you’re looking for more top board games from 2017, then you can check out our aggregated list which has a slightly different top 10 than BoardGameGeek. And then I’ll explain some of the details below the image. I’m going to give you the fun part first: the map of most searched board games from 2017 (limited to BGG’s top 20) by state. In case you are not familiar with it, Google Trends is quite a fun tool for exploring all kinds of information regarding what and how people search.
