Frequently asked questions
What was the best game of 2001?

How many games came out in 2001?
Tsumi lists 324 2001 releases with enough ratings to rank, plus many more smaller titles you can search for and add to your library.
How is this 2001 ranking calculated?
Each game's IGDB player and critic rating is weighted by its vote count, which stops a brand-new release with a handful of ratings from jumping to the top. Rankings refresh every day.
