OK YES we forgot to take a cover photo 😂 and so YES we had to use an awkward freeze frame mid-intro.
Thanks for tuning in in spite of our expressions for our review of Windmill Valley! A game that is all about farming tulips and carefully managing the water flow. A game that is about chaining actions together and putting windmills into a network in the beautiful valley. But mostly, a game that is just so darn charming and easy to like.

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.
