We've loved spending fortnightly Mondays backing games with you in 2021. We were a bit shocked to look at the total list, and thought we'd talk through some of our reflections on all of the campaigns. Wishing you all a wonderful holiday season, and looking forward to bringing back Back Chat in 2022. A&M x

Thanks for stopping by! We're Amy & Maggie aka ThinkerThemer. We're an Australian couple with two very different perspectives of what makes a great board game - Amy (Thinker) is all about the mechanics and enjoys tight, competitive games, and Maggie (Themer) is all about the storytelling and the theme of the game, and the 'world' that the designer is trying to create. Subscribe to our channel to hear us talk about these two elements of a game, and how well integrated we feel these are in delivering a cohesive and wonderful game experience.
