These catalog games stay outside the ordered list until they receive eligible head-to-head comparisons.

How the Simulation ranking works

This list ranks 24 Simulation games using Elo rather than review averages. Every eligible player pick compares two games directly and moves both scores according to the strength of the matchup.

The ranking currently reflects 233 comparison signals from 5 players. It changes as more people make choices, so close positions should be read as an active race rather than a permanent verdict.
