NEW MICRO GAMES

Tiny Epic Defenders

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!?

Tiny Epic Galaxies

Tiny Epic Galaxies is driven by an exciting dice-rolling mechanic that rewards thoughtful programming of the results. Players control a home planet and a series of space ships within their own personal galaxy. As players upgrade their galaxies they gain access to more ships and more dice.

Each turn, a player will roll a set of dice, how many dice are rolled is determined by the level of that player’s galaxy. Each side of the die (6 sided) represents a different type of action: Movement, Colony Action, Harvest from Culture Planets, Harvest from Energy Planets, Improve an Economic Influence, Improve a Diplomatic Influence.

After the roll, the player then sorts the results of the roll (one selective re-roll is allowed) and organizes the dice in a desired activation order. Each die, in order, is then resolved and the results are immediate! This gets very exciting, as it allows the player to pull-off unseen combos and surprise other players. But don’t fret! Other players have the option to copy other player’s actions… at a cost!

In addition to upgrading galaxies, effective resource management provides luck-mitigating options that can sway the game in a calculated player’s favor.

As players expand their galaxy by colonizing other planets through economic and diplomatic influence, they gain victory points AND the special powers brought in by those planets!

You are the ruler of your galaxy and there are no limits to your expansion!

EAT ME IF YOU CAN!

The Wolf is back, and he is not happy! But Little Red Riding Hood, the Three Little Pigs, and the Seven Kids may yet have the last laugh! Each turn, take on the role of one of these famous characters. As the Wolf, try to surprise the other players in their sleep by sneaking into their lovely little cottages. But beware, Wolf! Your tender victims may have laid traps for you!

A quick game to enjoy with family or friends! Explained in 2 minutes! Be crafty, and don’t hesitate to bluff if it will save your skin!

Welcome to the Dungeon

You all stand at the entrance to the dungeon, but only one will enter: the bravest, the craziest, or maybe just the one who hasn’t had a chance to flee yet!

To see who has the guts to enter, take turns setting aside equipment or adding monsters to the dungeon. Are you tough enough to hit the dungeon? Or will you let someone else go down — and hope they stay down?

Welcome to the Dungeon is a subtle game of “chicken.” Don’t get cold feet, but enjoy icing your opponents!

Kabuki

Hone your memory and recognition skills in this mini game! Memorize masks as they are placed in different piles and win points by pausing the game when a match is made within a pile. If you stopped the game with no matches in the active pile, lose points! Survive three rounds with the most points to win!

Kobayakawa

In feudal Japan, powerful samurai clans battle for dominion over the land. But just being the strongest isn’t enough. The powerful Kobayakawa clan shifts allegiance like the wind, bringing victory to the weak. Do you have what it takes to outsmart them?
