In Tiny Epic Defenders, players must select their class and work together to defend the foreboding horde and slay the Epic Foe.

Will you take on the role of the Barbarian, the Sorcerer, the Cleric or the Warrior? Each class has a unique player power that you will need to use.

In this fast-paced game, players will scramble between various regions outside their Capital City fighting off enemy hordes! Each region will offers unique properties that players must calculate into their strategy

If your group is fortunate enough to defeat the wave of monsters, you may live long enough to face the Epic Foe! Which Epic foe will it be? Will you be prepared!?

Does your group have what it takes to survive? Will you have the synergy to be crowned the Tiny Epic Defenders!?

STORY:
After the Great War (Tiny Epic Kingdoms), many of the factions, shattered and defeated, looked for something to cling to. One final hope before the last of their race would flow like the river into the ocean of history, gone and forgotten. It was the sages of the Order of Gamelyn who answered their prayers. They provided a new perspective on unity, and a way of life that would welcome peaceful members of any faction. A utopia for all. With very few options and a will to survive, this world alliance became an inevitable truth in the eyes of many of the factions' leaders. Even factions who hated one another had nothing left but each other. Under the guidance of the Order of Gamelyn, a Capital City was chosen and factions from all over the world came to call this city their new home. At last, the world was at peace... but not for long. A great storm is coming and in the darkness of the mist, there be demons.

Rather Disappointing

This game feels pretty mindless and a lot of your turns may be best spent doing nothing so you can defend a spot, or returning to the middle of the map so you can heal and go find a spot to defend on your next turn. I grabbed the expansion too, which does improve the game a decent amount, but even with the expansion, I’d give it a 6/10 at best. Tiny Epic Dungeons and Zombies are both far superior choices.

There’s a similar game called Mint Cooperative which is cheaper, smaller, shorter, and honestly much more engaging than Defenders.

Accessible, Quick Card Game

An enjoyable cooperative card-driven game, but has much more replay value with the Dark War expansion! Quite simple to teach and very accessible. The small plastic pieces you can attach to your meeples are adorable!

A step into Tiny Epic games...

Don't let this simple card, slider game fool you. It can be more difficult than you think! PUT THOSE FIRES OUT or risk losing the capital!
Check it out!

The 2nd Edition Improved the Game

If you enjoy Pandemic, you will enjoy this game. Tiny Epic Defenders was a great smallbox cooperative fantasy game, that had the 2nd edition released a few years back and it made some major improvements. Components were upgraded to include plastic items that correlated with the item cards and could now be attached the the players meeple allowing you to visually see what your character is holding. The rules were tweeked and the art got a major overhaul that breathed new life into the game. This game clocks in at about 45 minutes, so it is a fast experience, but doesn't overstay it's welcome. It gives a good feel for overcoming waves of monsters, and the boss battles are fantastic and reminiscent of classic video games. This new edition definitely gets 5 stars.
