#248: The Need for Theme

The topic of theme has come up intermittently over the course of the podcast, but how important is it? Is it something that makes or breaks a game? Or would we be mostly okay if games were mostly non-thematic? Before we burst at the theme, we talk about Mamma Mia!, Football Highlights 2052, Kanban, and Oathsworn: Into the Deepwood.

18:50 - Kanban
20:59 - Oathsworn: Into the Deepwood
34:25 - The importance of theme

38:08 - Catherine: The Cities of the Tsarina
38:42 - Point Salad
40:04 - Abandon All Artichokes
43:29 - Glüx
47:25 - Décorum
49:08 - Deal with the Devil
