This is for suggesting games released in 2021 which you think might be worth considering for Best use of Innovation in the XYZZY awards.
This is not a zeroth-round nomination. This is not an official list. The point of poll is partly to suggest games that others might want to check out, partly as your own reminder for when XYZZY season comes around.
This isn't intended as a straw poll; please don't upvote games already on the list.
