Bonfires, the source of light and life have been taken away from the gnomes and now only one thing is certain... we need to race each other to get it back! Can you collect all the pieces of the puzzle and bring the guardians of the light back to worship your bonfires? Will you get to the public objectives and elders first or come from behind with a victory point tidal wave at the end?

Thanks for stopping by for our mechanics & theme board game review of Bonfire. 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.
