Hegemony is one of our favourite recent big box board games - stretching what a board game can be, and how to seamlessly integrate education into a fun experience. Well now that same team are back with the follow-up: World Order! We weren't sure what to expect but hope that our game experiences help you assess whether it's a game for you. Thanks for watching as always! A&M x

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.
