Tiny Epic is more than just an intriguing title, it is a modus operandi for Gamelyn Games and their popular series of small box games. With the series now at 11 games (plus numerous expansions), each having funded on Kickstarter for a staggering collective total of $8.6 million, it’s clear Gamelyn Games and their Tiny Epic series have captured the hearts of many gamers! So, what is Tiny Epic?
The trademark qualities of Tiny Epic games are that they come in small boxes and offer a high level of strategy and replayability, keeping everyone at the table involved the entire time. This remains true in their latest entry in the series, Tiny Epic Dungeons, a fully cooperative classic dungeon crawler for 1-4 players that plays in an hour.
In Tiny Epic Dungeons, players control a band of heroes exploring a treacherous dungeon in search of the fearsome dungeon boss. Heroes make their way through the dungeon one room at a time.
