- This is Part 16 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

00:58:01 Wrap up
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.

At the very beginning of the video I mention the wonderful Candice Harris from BGG but instead say 'from BGA' *facepalm* - sorry everyone, the coffee kicks in later in the video 😂
Guess who recommended Rebel Princess to me? Candice. These things trickle down.
Hahaha we do say we're a bad influence on each other... and now by extension, on you! 😆 Hope youre both well ❤️
Love to hear about rebel princess!!
Eeee it is such a joy!
love to get the game, does anyne know when/where I will be able to?
Agree or disagree about a game or its rating, your videos are always a pleasant experience and very thorough in the information provided regarding what you feel about the game and play experience. That, and the overall quality of your content is what makes your channel so compelling! Or maybe I just enjoy the Aussie accents... 😃
Hahahaaha if nothing else we deliver on the accents ;) thank you so much for taking the time to give us this feedback, it made our day!
Ladies we can play Knarr anytime on BGA, I also really enjoy it! Probably lean closer to the excitement of Maggie on that one ;) haha and also Amy you kill me...with the glow in the dark pieces! You made me laugh out loud!
Great, my favourite ThinkerThemer series is back😊 I love listening to you talking about games in this format❤ greatings from Poland!
Heheh always takes a while to play 10 games enough to pull together an episode but we're always chipping away in the background. Thanks for watching!!
I definitely still very much enjoy this series "10, out of 10", and all your other reviews. Sometimes I rewatch certain vids, even if just in the background while I work or travel.
Thank you for filming them!
I have been loving Knarr on BGA. I like the tension of wanting to improve one engine, but needing to tear down the other in order to do so. It’s so fast and fun!
Yessss! I wish it was as fast IRL but can't deny the tension in the core choice! Love! Thanks for watching!
Thank you Amy and Maggie, it was great to meet you in Essen. Your video is really great :) and I am so happy you enjoy Fruitoplay!
Knarr sounds fantastic. Hope I can play it (or buy it) sometime
Love your channel! You've helped me and my wife pick out many games we both love. Have you published a list of all of the games you've rated by chance?
Yay so happy to hear that!!! We will definitely do something fun with our ratings when we're a bit further through. At the moment it would probably misrepresent our top games because of all of the ones on our shelf behind us we need to get back to to rate!!! Thank you so much for the kind words 🙏 ❤️
Rebel princess, fruit game and the Come Sail away game have all been added to my list to research more about. The last of which sounds really interesting.
I still haven’t gotten Rebel Princess to the table 😢 Excited that it’s as delightful as it looked!
We were also hoping to pickup Rebel Princess at Essen because of your video but were there Saturday and missed the last raffle. Hopefully we can find it again soon!
Anyhow we ended up picking up La Familia Horte instead and that was a pleasant surprise. The kids had a demo game at the booth and thought it was great fun. So thanks for sending us in their direction!!!
Calculator watch is out, but highlights are in!
Hahahah 😆 it's almost summer and time for a change!!!!!
The only one of these games that I have played is Faraway and that was on BGA because it has not made it to the U.S. yet as far as I know. So many games! No way could I play them all! I cannot even play all of the ones that I own now and I did not go to Essen, lol.
Thanks for the video, ladies!
Thank you for the video!
Love you channel and your enthusiasm! And I‘m looking forward to Witchcraft being released in German.
Friendly advice from a Norwegian:
The K in Knarr is not silent
As always insane video! I just bought obsession and i'm gonna try it solo first time friday :)
Whoohoo!! Look forward to hearing what you think! It still has a very unique charm about it
Thanks for another great video in the series!
Thank you for watching as always!! Have you been working through your own haul??
@@ThinkerThemer Haha yes! I really like Rebel Princess as well! But I think our entire collection is smaller than your Essen haul 😅 Hope you are having a wonderful week! Take care! Cis
Nobody viys anything during holiday time? I wasnt aware of that. I have 35 bordgames thats on the way as a preorder kick start.
Ooo! Hopefully some of them deliver soon so that you can have a festive season of playing games!
Can you fill me in on who pays all your bills so that you are able to buy all these games and go to all those Cons? I would love to know, lol.
