These are the audio versions of our Small Talk & Back Chat series. 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 board 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.

10, OUT OF 10 (Part 17): The Hotness vs Le Havre...

Monday, February 19, 2024 • Duration 56:35

This is Part 17 of our series, 10 (COMMA!) OUT OF TEN, where we rate 10 games on a 10 point scale from our two unique perspectives!

We hope this helps you get a better sense for our game preferences, and remember.....

1) ratings are subjective, based on our own individual enjoyment of the game, they're not a judgment on game quality or the likelihood you would feel the same,
2) our game preferences are ever evolving and these may change,
3) we respect and would love to hear your differences of ratings in the comments... that's what makes gaming so fascinating and full of joy. There is something for everyone! 💜

Have a great week ahead,
A&M xx

It was also a big week visiting the mailbox, with so many new games arriving, as well as some postcards which always make us smile. Have a glorious week ahead, A&M xx ❤
