Woodcraft ~ these blueberries are CRUNCHY 🤯 | Board Game Review

Welcome to the world of Woodcraft where, as our resident themer describes, you "grow wood" to "cut up wood" and "make wood masterpieces" 😆 -- but underneath all of the cuteness of the blueberry currency and the strange elf-like wood people characters is an incredibly crunchy optimisation puzzle. Didn't see that coming, did you?

Thanks for stopping by for our mechanics & theme board game review of Woodcraft. 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. #boardgames #thinkerthemer
