January: Community Picks

This month the BLAEO community decides which games deserve some extra attention!

The theme includes games that we most enjoyed playing in 2021. It doesn’t matter what the game’s release year is; what matters is that the members of the BLAEO community played it in 2021 and liked it so much that they want to see other assassins enjoy it too.

The list of games is available here. If you haven’t posted your own list yet, you can still do so at any point this month.

If you want to make choosing the games easier, check out Enhanced BLAEO - it will tell you which eligible games you already own.

Really? well that makes one of us… I salute you.

I already finished my entry can I play another?
