Hello patrons!

Today's video is a collection of all the great gateway games I've recommended over the years, inspired by the popularity of last year's Ultimate Christmas Gift Guide.

Yes, I have a Top 10 Gateway Games video, but in reality there is far more than 10 great gateway games, and I think the right game comes down to the person looking and what resonates with them. So better to recommend a wide variety and let them decide. It's also nice to re-recommend games from older videos which no-one watches anymore.

Apologies to the Actual Credit patrons - I forgot to put the credits on the end of this video, and I was many hours into the exporting/uploading process before realising, and didn't want to delay the video even further. I promise not to forget next time!

Thanks to the patrons on the Discord who helped me decide how to categorise the games, and gave me feedback on my approach.

See you all for the newsletter, next week!

Actually yours,

Jon
