+gnome-games 2.31.1
+==================
+
+This release includes a lot of improvements mainly for sudoku, chess, and tetravex.
+Overall the games now have more consistent menus, better HIG compliance, and now
+builds with GSEAL.
+
+The work on sudoku includes a new sharper look, less cluttered menus, removal of
+the status bar, and a ton of bug fixes. Chess now supports svgs for pieces and
+includes a new theme. Chess also moved to use GtkInfoBar. In tetravex animation
+support was added together with support for swapping pieces. In quadrapassel the
+difficulty in the later levels was tweaked to be easier.
+
+Thanks to all contributors and a big welcome to our new developer Jim Ross for
+the awesome work on sudoku.
