Top 10 Games to *Buy, Try or Spy* at GenCon 2023

Описание: We weren't expecting to be headed to GenCon 2023 but now that we are we're again mapping out our purchases and demos and we thought we'd share these in a list for you!

And of course even if you can’t make it to GenCon, this is a list of some upcoming games that will no doubt be hitting crowdfunding and retail at the back half of this year.

We’ve also included in the timestamps where you can find each of these games at GenCon (to the best of our knowledge!)

Note: all B-roll in this video is credited to game publisher and/or designer of the game

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.
