Talking about new and old obscure abstract games
The game museum, near Vienna, is a project from Dagmar de Cassan and her husband. Nowadays, it consists of thousands of games that are being archived and cataloged in a digital database. Let's hope they can solve the space problem so that people can consult and play many of these board games.

Most of the early posts about new games came from playtesting and discussions between João Pedro Neto and Bill Taylor. But even before Bill's passing on July 2021, the blog had gradually shifted its focus toward old and obscure two-player abstract board games. The blog will tend to avoid Chess variants and Mancala games, as dedicated sites for those already exist.
Regarding the chronological tags: older games means 1800s-1940s (pre-WW2),
old games means 1950-1989 (pre-video games),
new games means 1990-2005 (at least for now).
