BGB Podcast #6 – Today’s Theme: Pronunciation

Wednesday, more like Bestday, because it’s BGB podcast time.

Our feature topic this week is theme. How important is the theme of a board game to you? Does it affect your enjoyment of a game? What games best utilize their theme to put a neat little bow on their mechanics? We talk about all this (and more!!!) after a quick look at our week in games, which includes Tash Kalar, Krazy Wordz, Kanban, and The Mind.
