Summary
There's plenty packed into a small footprint box as in all Tiny Epic titles and the components and artwork are top notch. I'm sure there are plenty of gamers out there who will really dig this second edition. I just don't happen to be a big fan of games where you're more reactive than proactive. This doesn't mean Tiny Epic Defenders is a bad game by any stretch since we had fun but it wouldn't be my first choice from the line to pull down to play with the gang. The review score is really no fault of the design itself but more about my personal tastes.

Naysayers say that as you see cards come out, you know what is likely to next occur… yeah, but that’s not enough for me. Just felt flat…
