I will definitely check out Earth and Votes for Women.

My personal favorites from 2022/23 (don't have enough from just 2023):

• Sea Salt & Paper my second favorite small-deck card game after Mottainai. Very addictive!
• Evergreen a chill drafting game with a spatial puzzle and great components
• Wizards of the Grimoire 2p card battler with a neat mana/cooldown mechanic
• Space Station Phoenix An engine builder where you scrap your ships (which also give your actions) to use them as building resources. Looks great on the table.
• For Northwood! A solo tricktaker that works really well, excellent production. Available as PnP too.
• Tiletum Luciani/Tascini euro, love them all, this one is good too. (Don't have Darwin yet)
