2000s

Origin year places a game in the year its rules were first fixed in writing. Wikipedia notes rugby football's "rules were first put down in written (codified) form in 1845," even though students had already been playing an informal version "since at least the early 1820s." Browsing by origin year separates when a game's rules were formalized from when it was actually first played.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why isn't Monopoly classified as a Modern Hobby Strategy Game?

Monopoly predates the Eurogame movement and is grouped under Race Games instead, for its mechanic rather than its era.

Modern Hobby Strategy Games covers the Eurogame or German-style hobby board game movement of the late 20th century onward, such as Catan, Pandemic and Ticket to Ride. Monopoly predates this movement and is grouped instead under Race Games for its roll-and-move mechanic.
