Talking about new and old obscure abstract games
Brainline is an uncredited 1970s game published by Berliner Spielkarten and Palitoy.
BGG has this description of the rules:
A two player abstract game played on a 7 by 9 array of hexes. Each player has four pegs of his colour on the specified starting hexes. On his turn a player may move any one of his pegs any distance in a straight line but may not jump any other peg. The object of the game is to be the first to get all four pegs of your colour in a straight line. They do not have to be adjacent but there must be no opponent pegs between them.

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, Mancala games, and Go Variants, 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).
