Tiny dungeon 2e pdf download free
Full disclosure: I backed Tiny Dungeon 2E during the Kickstarter, so I got my copy of the game plus the unlocked extras at the backer cost. I wanted something with less crunch. It was that simple. I love crunch most of the time, tiny dungeon 2e pdf download free. Enter: Tiny Dungeon, tiny dungeon 2e pdf download free. I somehow found Tiny Dungeon 1E and immediately was enamored with the content. It was concise yet still represented the basic fantasy RPG genre well.
Shortly after that, I saw the Kickstarter for the 2nd Edition that looked like it would help fix one of my main complaints about the 1st edition which was that all characters felt the same. Now that 2E is actually out, let me tell you about in more detail. The main mechanic of the game, in fact the only mechanic, is rolling 2d6 and looking for a 5 or 6 on a die.
Want to pick a lock? Roll 2d6 for success. Want to attack an orc? Want to do an acrobatic tumble followed by a dragon-like leap and then swing on the chandelier across the room?
Tiny Dungeon 2E is wonderful at being a quick game to pick up and play, tiny dungeon 2e pdf download free. I would have no qualms with taking this game to my group, explaining the basics, and then getting into a game all in the same night.
Any character can try to pick a lock, tumble acrobatically, or track a beast through the swamps, and thus, every character can mechanically end up close to the same, especially in 1E, but 2E addressed this in a couple of ways.
One way to differentiate a bit is that there are abilities or circumstances that give characters Advantage roll 3d6 or Disadvantage roll 1d6. Another is that in such a rules light system, there is a lot of encouragement to just use GM fiat on some issues. For example, it would make total sense to tell a non-rogue type character that they can only attempt to pick a lock at Disadvantage even if there is no written rule for it.
One of the great things about such an extremely minimal rules set is that it implicitly puts the emphasis on playing the character rather than the stats. I know that in PF, tiny dungeon 2e pdf download free, I tend to think about actions in terms of where my highest bonus is bluff or diplomacy, melee or range, etc. TD2E really opens the door to think about what my character would really do in each situation.
I now can ask myself what response to a given situation would fit their personality instead of their stats? Since everything boils down to the success rolls, tiny dungeon 2e pdf download free, character differentiate themselves by picking Traits where they excel.
For example, using magic in 1E was basically completely up to GM fiat, but 2E provides some specific spell-like Traits that a powerful wizard could have. They do the same thing for martial arts fighting styles and techniques, paladins, and druids by explicitly defining these options. I think this is one of the best improvements that 2E made because it really allows you to flesh out a bit more of each character.
You also further differentiate your characters by choosing a Heritage or raceand there are some cool ones! There are optional rules for variable weapon damage, crits, zoned combat movement instead of speed, which I really grew to enjoy while playing Red Marketsarmor, and more.
There are plenty of provided monsters even ignoring the fact that over half are dinosaurs for some reason and many of the monsters have unique traits of their own. The optional rules for experience and leveling up provide even tiny dungeon 2e pdf download free avenue for making your characters stand out from each other. On top of this, they added a ton of micro-settings that give seeds of worlds that you can play in. Whether you choose the wuxia inspried martial arts world or the monsters protecting their cave from the evil heroes world, each micro-settings can re-flavor your game to suit your play style.
There are a ton of good choices here plus many tiny dungeon 2e pdf download free the micro-settings offer new rules and traits to tack on the base game. In general, this is a great little tiny dungeon 2e pdf download free. The only reason I would drop this game down to a A- from an A is because there are still a unbalanced traits and typos such as leaving out action types necessary to activate abilities that make my min-maxing side cringe just a bit.
If you really want those micro-settings and the awesome cover artyou need the full Tiny Dungeon 2E Rulebook here. Tiny dungeon 2e pdf download free Frontiers is their space version that is getting a nice new revision thanks to the Tiny Dungeon Kickstarter stretch goals and Tiny Frontiers: Mecha and Monsters is a Godzilla stomping or mech warrior battle game. Got to be easier than BattleTech, right? A Story of Successes The main mechanic of the game, in fact the only mechanic, is rolling 2d6 and looking for a 5 or 6 on a die.
A System without Class…In a Good Way Since everything boils down to the success rolls, character differentiate themselves by picking Traits where they excel. Overall Grade: A- In general, this is a great little game. You can also check out their other Tiny products with more genres on the way!
The Joy of Creation.
