The list follows the same criteria of the 20th century Canon. It includes, however, games inspired by Go, given the exploration and advances proposed this century. However, I don't consider this list a 'canon' since not enough time has passed to conclude the cultural relevance of most of these games. It is a selection of worthwhile modern abstract games. At present, it spans the first quarter of the 21st century.
