Tiny Epic Galaxies [Kickstarter]
Looks intriguing. The prior two 'Tiny Epic' games appear to have done well. Do any of you have experience with the prior games?

I have a copy of Tiny Epic Kingdoms but have never had a chance to get it to the table. And I backed Tiny Epic Defenders.Zaxxon wrote:Looks intriguing. The prior two 'Tiny Epic' games appear to have done well. Do any of you have experience with the prior games?

Re: Tiny Epic Galaxies [Kickstarter]
I'm backing this one at the base level. Still considering whether deluxe is worth it. Get Kingdoms out before this ends so you can tell me whether to add it on.

Re: Tiny Epic Galaxies [Kickstarter]
Yea, I am waiting on Tiny Epic Defenders and that makes this a tough call. I am a big fan of space games and this one appeals -- but I have a wide range of good games in the theme.
I did play a game of Tiny Epic Kingdoms on New Year's Eve with hepcat and seppe (and actually lost). It was a pretty decent game, but I liked the idea of a slimmed down Defenders better. I also liked the Tiny Epic meeples from going in for one-of-everything in the Meeple Source KS.

Re: Tiny Epic Galaxies [Kickstarter]
Damn, the game builds a space theme on combos and claiming planets. This one isn't going to be easy to resist.

Re: Tiny Epic Galaxies [Kickstarter]
I backed TEK, they run a good clean well-communicated campaign. I have recently played TEK a few times since we have been traveling a bit and I really like the game. It plays quick, has plenty of variety, and is really small. I got the deluxe version and I likely will get the deluxe version of Galaxies as well.
I just said in another thread I didn't see much chance of backing anything this year but it looks like I am going to back Tiny Epic Galaxies because I really like TEK quite a bit. I didn't back Tiny Epic Defenders because TEK hadn't been delivered yet and I'm trying not to get into kickstarters when the previous one hasn't been delivered yet.
I've only played 2-player games of TEK but there is a lot of variety available and virtually no luck. The game is really quick to learn and teach. So I am a fan of it.

I met the developer at Origins. Super nice guy. I think we had breakfast together twice. That said, I don't know anything about the game except that I've been getting notices about it from him in my facebook feed.
No sig, must scream, etc.

I think that the authors say is very right, especially the views of the author close to our daily life.So we can go to the

Re: Tiny Epic Galaxies [Kickstarter]
I also backed this project because I like the theme and the form factor.
It seems to have garnered some very positive reviews from people who have played the prototype.
