A world of peace has been torn asunder by the opening of a vile portal from the goblin kingdom. Nasty goblins pour into the peaceful groves and villages of the elf world, setting the realm ablaze. Now you, the heroes, must quest in order to right this wrong. There are two paths to victory: closing the portal or slaying all the goblins. Which one will you choose? Either way, your quests will be aided by the help of the surviving mushroom folk — and by the epic items that have been lost in the realm’s deep dungeons. The world is ending quickly, so you must act fast to save it, but you also need to know when your luck will run out…
In Tiny Epic Quest, players embark on a sandbox adventure. Each player controls a band of three elf heroes questing to save the world and the sacred mushroom folk from the intruding goblins.
Each round is broken into two phases: day and night. During the day, players travel far and wide, visiting villages to acquire quests, monuments to learn powerful spells, mushroom groves to seek guidance, and treacherous locations in search of artifacts! Acquiring artifacts empower the heroes with unique abilities; this may improve a heroes’ movement or combat, or their ability to learn spells or mitigate harmful dice rolls.
Heroes must travel by foot, by horse, by raft, by boat and by gryphon to get to everywhere they need to go to satisfy their quests — or to position themselves for what night brings. As each type of movement is different, and limited, players need to take careful consideration when traveling, and how they travel, if they wish to accomplish all of their goals.
During the night, players must face the challenge of their quests, and decisions, by rolling dice, hoping for fortune, and knowing when to quit. Will you press on? Or is it time to save your progress and rest? Tomorrow is another day.
The game ends once the portal is closed or all the goblins have been eradicated. The player who has acquired the most victory points by slaying goblins, learning spells, and completing quests is crowned the winner!

I absolutely love this game! I am so glad I got in on kick starter (a bit late but still). So in this game, there are two phases, day and night, in the day you position your heroes on temples/dungeons, goblin portals and spell shrines to set up what you do during the night, beating temples/dungeons, killing goblins, and learning spells. The hard part comes in deciding what to do to best suit you and the current quests available to complete for points. From all the play my copy has gone through, the pieces have held up rather well. The 'itemeeples' are a fantastic idea, and I have never had a problem with items falling out. I have tried this game with some younger kids, and it does seem to be a little too complicated for some of them. Usually if they play a lot of other games they are fine by round 2 of the game though All in all, I recommend giving this game a try.

The meatiest of the three Tiny Epics we own. Suprisingly complex positioning day phase (for the few options it offers) and push-your-luck night phase in each round, a semi-randomised double-sided board and a number of items and ways to earn victory points. For the size of the box, it really packs a punch and has an enormous table-footprint. The strategising can get rather complex and the game may get a tad lengthy because of that. But I like it a lot. The art is pretty and meeples are just superb, especially when kitted out with items.
