I love board games! I do a list every year! These are "new to me", not strictly published in 2022, for example Heat: Pedal to the Metal was in 2022, but Cuba was published in 2007. I play a lot of obscure euro-style games, I'll place a * for games that are more accessible to the general public.
1. Little Town *
2. Cuba
3. Splendor Duel *
4. Hellas
5. Anno 1800
6. Heat: Pedal to the Metal *
7. Fast Sloths *
8. Scout! *
9. Faiyum
10. The Estates
I'm writing up a BGG Geeklist for these. You can find all kinds of "top" lists here: https://boardgamegeek.com/geeklists?sort=recent
