Starting this piece is difficult because it's impossible not to mention the world's issues. I was very optimistic when I thought people would be dealing with COVID for another six months when I wrote last year's version of this list. With Omicron being more transmissible than any other variant, we could be facing months of uncertainty now. Even more, if morons refuse to get vaccinated and allow more strains and mutations to use their body as a Petri dish. Alas, I don't have the same control that Strategy and Simulation games give me, so we can't fix the stupids.

What I can do, however, is tell you the best strategy and simulation games to have come out in 2021. Much like previous years' lists (Strategy: 2016, 2017. Simulation: 2016, 2017. Strategy & Simulation: 2018, 2019, 2020), there are a few rules we follow. Only new and released titles can qualify for the list, which means no Hardspace: Shipbreaker (still in early access) or Total War: Rome Remastered (re-release). Naturally, only games that have been played will appear, but it doesn't necessarily mean they've all got a review on the site.
