My taste in games certain changes. Games that I loved in 1999 barely make the table 12 years later. But here are my Top 10 games from the end of the last century as I rank them now. This was a much tougher list to make than my 2007 list.

My other "best of" lists. Feel free to comment or disagree!

1. Lost Cities *Fun and simple card game with a pasted on theme that works perfectly. I love the art.

2. Chinatown * Great diplomacy/negotiation game with the right group. Time limits for negotiating are key to make this work.

3. Ra *Fun bidding game that I still play on IPad.

4. Tikal *Great exploration game that has great staying power.

5. Schotten-Totten *Battleline's uncle. Fun though I'm very annoyed that the Knitzia empire saw fit to take this game off www.yucata.de

6. Mordred *Martin Wallace goodness that hasn't made it to the table in years.

7. Money! *Mr. Knizia's second entry on my top ten. Still play on the Ipad. You know its good because the title has an exclaimation point!

8. Apples to Apples *My kids LOVE this game, so I put up with it.

9. Vinci *I like Small World Much more.

10. Starfarers of Catan *Too fiddly and complex for a Catan game. Why play this when you can just play Catan?

Why play Starfarers? Because you get the thrill of exploration and expansion, the interesting special power cards, the fun encounter cards, and as a little added bonus, neat components. Starfarers is my favorite Catan game for sure.
