The Short Game

Our slightly belated GOTY 2021 episode is here, and we’re honoring our favorite games of this complicated year. (If you’re a patron, you can also tune in for our unedited horse-trading and planning session in the Patreon podcast feed!)

Thanks for sticking with us in 2021. We’re looking forward to a bright 2022!

The Short Game is supported directly by our listeners on Patreon! Supporters at any level get access to our Discord, where we discuss games, plan episodes, and talk about what we are playing in real time. You can also support us by writing a review on Apple Podcasts!
