| description = I think it's fair to say that we crushed this last year (although some of us better than others), so it's only correct and right that we should return to do it again. What are the best games of 2026 going to be? Well, only we know, but we're willing to part with that information. Get your fat stacks ready. Before we set ourselves up for failure, we talk about ''Alibis'', ''Mosaic: A Story of Civilization'', and ''Cyclades: Legendary Edition''.

This week, two player games. Also... did we mention you can win $50 just by voting? Before we revel in democracy, we also talk about ''Rolling Freight'', and ''Six-Sided Seas''.
