I was trying to find some games the other day, using advanced search and filters, and I’ve noticed some categories feel not so useful. This is the actual main categorization:
- Abstract games
- Children’s games
- Customizable games
- Family games
- Party games
- Strategy games
- Thematic games
- Wargames
These are the main game genres in your opinion?
Yeah, mechanism is a lot more objective way to classify board games. We can argue all day about, say, what exactly a wargame is, but what games have hex grids, area control, and resource managements is a lot easier to agree on.
