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.

Star Wars : La Bataille de Hoth – Peut-on y jouer en famille ? Review spéciale Noël
02. Januar 2026 um 15:36
Le jeu propose des affrontements héroïques et rapides de figurines, situés sur la planète glacée Hoth, et recrée l’une des scènes les plus emblématiques de Star Wars: L’Empire contre-attaque. Basé sur le système Command & Colors, il repose sur une mécanique accessible mais tendue : à chaque tour, les joueurs choisissent des cartes de commandement pour activer leurs unités, manœuvrer sur le champ de bataille et résoudre les combats.
La boîte inclut 17 scénarios, permettant de rejouer la bataille sous différents angles. Pour celles et ceux qui souhaitent aller plus loin, le jeu propose également l’ajout de cartes Leader, mettant en scène des personnages iconiques de la saga, ainsi que deux campagnes multi-scénarios où les succès et les échecs influencent les affrontements suivants.
Dans cette vidéo, nous abordons le jeu avec un regard familial et intergénérationnel : accessibilité pour des joueuses et joueurs plus jeunes, lisibilité des règles, plaisir de jeu, mais aussi ce que Battle of Hoth apporte à la longue tradition des jeux Command & Colors et des adaptations Star Wars.

New Year Rant 2026
31. Dezember 2025 um 18:36
In this video, we break down exactly why modern board gaming has lost its spark—from bloated Kickstarter campaigns and endless deluxe reprints, to recycled mechanics, shallow designs, and hype-driven reviews. What was once a creative renaissance has become an assembly line of overpriced boxes and forgettable experiences.
We’ll look at:
Why innovation has slowed to a crawl
How crowdfunding changed incentives for designers and publishers
The rise of “content over craft” game design
Why bigger, heavier, and shinier doesn’t mean better
Whether board gaming can recover—or if this is the new normal
This isn’t nostalgia for the past or blind cynicism—it’s a hard look at where board gaming is right now and why many players are quietly burning out. If you love board games but feel something’s gone wrong, this video is for you.
👉 Agree or disagree? Drop your take in the comments and let’s argue about it properly.

Brandywine 1777: A Time for Heroes – History, Design, and Play | Live Stream
31. Dezember 2025 um 11:02
Brandywine 1777: A Time for Heroes is a two-player historical wargame covering the Battle of Brandywine, fought on 11 September 1777 during the American War of Independence. One player commands the British and Hessian forces under Howe, while the other leads the Continental Army under Washington. The game focuses on command decisions, maneuver, and the friction of 18th-century warfare, offering a tense and historically grounded experience.
During the stream, we will discuss the historical background of the battle, the core design principles behind the system, the development process, and what makes Brandywine 1777 distinct within the landscape of American Revolutionary War games. We will also talk about the production choices and what players can expect from the final version.
The game is currently available in late pledge on Gamefound. You can find the campaign here:

My pronunciations are not always great, as I am not familiar with the Hawaiian language. For example I noticed the way I say "Haole" drifted over the course of the reading. Apologies!
I hope this is enjoyable for some people, if for no better purpose than as a sleeping aid.
