Thanks for stopping by to watch Back Chat! 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.
Are you #teamthinker or #teamthemer? ❤🏳️‍🌈🇦🇺

Taking the Thinker Themer work break I so look forward to... Thanks for these! I don't think I'll be backing any of this group, but I do think that almost all of the games on this list are simply gorgeous! Such production, design, color, presence, scope, etc. Even if I won't be backing, I'd be happy to simply stare at them on the table. Impressive.

[AaronAndSusie]

When I saw the components for my father's work I knew you both would back it regardless of anything else

[jamesmorgan]

Your T-shirt/sweater/microphone color coordination is on point! Thanks for another entertaining video; this time I watched over lunch. I'll be peeking at the campaigns for Aldabas, Dan Falconi, Kiwi Chowdown, Dice Theme Park, and Ice...but won't be backing anything. I'm on Day 19 of my Kickstarter Game Backing Moratorium. Not that anyone is counting or anything...

[mariasaha]

Ayyyy!!! Also such a lover of the neoprene mats! I love how cards, pieces and dice rolls feel on them. So luscious...And if they organize where things go, even better! Maybe do vid of games that use them?

[julietaylor]

I love the enthusiasm of Maggie with the game chai tea for 2.

[shelby]

Your teach of Welcome To was A+, but I think Maggie's 1-point win after the teach might have been A++ lol. And lots of great games highlighted this week that weren't on my radar! I think I might wait for retail on a few though due to the "spending spree" I was encouraged to have on painting supplies haha...

[maithuvenkatesh]

Your videos are really awesome! (I’ve definitely been binge watching them). I’ve really enjoyed watching and listening to your very honest perspectives on games.

[Vadjong]

ICE is on the slippery slope for me. And now you're pushing!

[dahakhamoontouched]

Wow this week was a good one for cool new stuff!
The Kiwi art is absolutely my kind of humour, I would buy it just on that. ICE is a great new take on the layering tiles mechanic. Don Falconi looks like a fun version of Whitechapel or Fury of Dracula. Dominations looks intriguing, as you say (but 35 euro shipping, yikes!). And of course My Father's Work is RIGHT up my alley!

[dianadavenport]

Well, I immediately backed Chai Tea for 2 and am very close to giving the go on Vivid. Don’t know if I should say “Thank you” or “Darn you.” I think “Thank You!” I am going to love these games. Thanks for the great videos. Keep them coming.

[karenpatterson]

What an awesome episode full of amazing games. Dice theme park is so appealing to me as i love both dice and theme park theme. Ice looks unique, so i will def be researching this more. Vivid memories and chai tea for 2 both look beautiful and i love the mechanisms in both.

[beornthebear]

Debating backing, my fathers work looks so interesting and those jars !!!!

[StephenGrubb]

I'm pleasantly surprised you are backing My Father's Work! The genre doesn't seem like your typical choice. However, I share your excitement with this one and backed it last week. One other thing I really like about this campaign is that there is just one backer level. I get a bit exhausted deciphering all the different levels offered by some campaigns. There's something to be said for keeping it simple.

[BoardGameGran]

Another fab episode ladies. I'm really interested in your 1 and 2!

[akingme]

Already backed Tea for 2, , but sending you a bill for $120 for ICE...damn, of course must get the magnetic board!

[darlene]

Always such a pleasure to relax after a day of working in the office and watch a #ThinkerThemer video! Another great video! I also decided to wait on on Dice Theme Park for retail. I have Dice Hospital but it is on my shelf of shame! So it is hard for me to justify backing that one. I am seriously contemplating Chai Tea for Two! I have the deluxe version of Chai and and at first I didn’t think I needed both, but Maggie’s excitement gets me every time! My Father’s Work looks amazing but I don’t really have anyone to play the campaign with and without a solo mode, I can’t hit that pledge button. Whew.... so maybe only one from this group! Thanks again for making my Mondays so much better! I need to redeem myself on another game of Welcome To! Such fun!

[nilsmeissner]

Hi there. Love your videos.
Dominations is a great game. One of my favourites from the last years.

[TheCrippledWerewolf]

Thanks so much for looking at My Father's Work! Yay!

[Renegade_KT]

Love the t-shirt Amy! Everyone should be allowed to exists loudly ;)

[patobrien]
