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?

I don’t have any unfinished games!
Really? well that makes one of us… I salute you.

I already finished my entry can I play another?

I had higher hopes for this month, but it was not to be. The one game wasn’t even much of a puzzle game. More of a hidden object game, even though it had the Puzzle tag.
