December/January: Mind Your Business
Ah, yes. December, that time of the year when we push through the stress of the holidays, but work finally winds down for the year. At least for a few days, we can forget about the daily grind and just relax, maybe play a video game. Well, with this theme, you don't have to forget about work! We'll literally mind our virtual shop or other business, be it selling books or trading cards, upcycling trash, making meals or drinks for fantasy creatures, policing the streets, running hospitals, building successful theme parks or any other work sim you can think of!
In a less literal sense, you can also use the silent nights of winter to play some stealth games and secretly stick your nose in other people’s business!

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 theme?
Nothing.
What happens if I play all of my unfinished games before the theme is over?
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.
Ohhh I have a planned game that fits the theme well. :D Also, I love the graphic for this month, very slick and stylized. :3
