What it does
Zatu Games sells board games, trading cards, miniatures and related hobby products. Its charts include UK Top 20, Editor's Choice, pre-orders and a BoardGameGeek Top 100 route.
Zatu's charts answer different discovery questions. A UK popularity list, an editorial selection and a BoardGameGeek-based list are different ways to build a game shortlist. The product feed also distinguishes in-stock items from back-orders and pre-orders, which matters when choosing a game for a particular gathering. Begin with a chart that matches the intended kind of search, then read the exact edition and stock label. Scenario packs, accessories and complete games can appear near each other, so the product format is part of understanding the listing.
A mixed basket can delay games that are already in stock: Zatu waits until every preorder or backorder item is available before dispatching the order. The FAQ recommends separate orders if you want the available games sooner. Backorders are charged when you place them, and supplier restock dates can change.
