The previous backlog challenge was a success at 34 games completed. This year I'm not going to bother with any restrictions. As a result, I would like to aim for 25 completed games by the end of the year. I'll keep this blog updated throughout the year with each game completed.

After completing an abysmal eight games last year, I figured I had better spend this year focusing hard on the backlog and working to complete as many games as possible. For the time being, I'm going with a realistic goal and would like to complete at least 30 games before the year is over. There are a couple of rules I'll need to follow though if I hope to achieve this goal:

• No online only games
• No lengthy role-playing games
• No replaying games

I would like to keep track of the completed games in this blog throughout the year.
