FAQ
Do I have to participate in this month’s theme?
No, as with every theme, these are merely suggestions for anyone who is unsure about what to play next. If you already have a battle plan for your backlog and/or don’t like this month’s theme, you’re free to ignore it.
What happens if I don’t participate in the monthly theme?
Nothing.
What happens if I play all of my unfinished games this month?
Your backlog will be a much smaller place.
I don’t have any unfinished games - I’ve beaten everything I’ve started.
Really? well that makes one of us… I salute you.
I already finished my entry can I play another?
Go ahead - the goal is to reduce your unfinished games list. The more you can play the better.

‘Her Story’ follows the theme of the month. In that, the suspect is interviewed, the interview is analysed and one learns more about her and the case.
In ‘Going Under’, you are an intern at an oppressive corporate.
In Lost words, you learn to do magic with common words.
For Limbo, you learn with every hurdle how progression through the puzzles work. Failing again and again till you see the logic behind the level.

I accidentally participated in the theme this month, at least a little bit :)
I suppose not participating in this one while trying to wrap up my reading backlog would be a crime so…
(Also, don’t wanna spam the massive picture in here too but relevant recycled meme)
Oi, it’s not September yet!
