What are monthly gaming themes? They are fun way to encourage different games get played throughout the year. Each month we assign a theme subject matter that attendees can then bring games that they think is associated with said theme.
Do you have to bring games related to the monthly theme? Not at all, it is simply for fun. If there is something you want to play, don’t let the theme stop you. We play games not related to the theme regularly. But we do play games that are related to the themes regularly as well.
