If you enjoyed the Martian, I highly recommend his newest book Project Hail Mary.

As many have said Viticulture is a staple of worker placement games. If you want something with a mix of mechanics with some worker placement, I'd recommend Everdell.
Organic Supports! So excited that they are official. I've been using the beta for a while, but glad it's officially released.
Beautiful work OP! Love the exposed wood in the middle. As a lover of wood grain, the more exposed wood the better!
Historical Legacy is a good way to put it. For Pokemon in particular, RBY was the franchise for a lot of people, myself included. I've played a few of the others, but RBY is what came out when I was a kid and will always be the one I remember.
Your 4th point really hits on the main problem with all lists like this and that is that what is "best" is different for everyone. I agree with you that this puts too much weight on storytelling, but I know for some people story is by far the most important part of any game. For me, I rarely care about the story at all, I just want interesting mechanics.
Thanks for the great reviews! You definitely got me interested in a few I probably would have looked past previously.
It'll be fixed in the next version of Lemmy. It's a known issue.
I did and I'm quite excited about it. I've played 5 or so runs in Tabletop Simulator with some friends and had a blast. It translates fairly well to the physical format. Plays differently than the video game but captures the same feel.
