ThinkerThemer

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.
