Too Many Bones

Too Many Bones: Undertow is a smaller, more compact variant of the core box of Too Many Bones (TMB). It comes with two characters/gearlocs: Duster and Stanza and is fully playable out of the box. The gist of TMB is that it's a dice building RPG. While not a simple or easy-to-learn game, TMB provides oodles of strategic gameplay. You play through a series of pre-determined days, racking up progress and experience points to take on an evil tyrant. The battles occur on a 4x4 mat. Your gearlocs, cute little troll characters, skirmish with various enemies with lots and lots of dice. Attack dice, defense dice, skill dice, etc. After battle, The exp you gain from victories can be used to increase your gearlocs stats or buy new dice. Rinse and Repeat. When you reach the final boss, your scrappy little warriors better be ready to throw down! TMB is a difficult game to grasp. All the enemies have different keywords that you need to learn, and your gearlocs all play differently. There's a separate sheet for every gearloc, with skills and strategy tips to help you, but the game will still take some time to grok. Clearly, it's not beginner-friendly, but for those willing to put in the time and effort, it shines brilliantly. For one, it's fun. Chucking dice never gets old, and upgrading your character over the course of your campaign is easy to get invested in. The skill trees on your mat won't always be filled in the same order, so there's plenty of room for experimentation and replayability, even through some routes clearly top others. This specific edition changes small details of the game, but mostly plays the same. Duster and Stanza, the two included gearlocs, vary in difficulty. Duster plays easily, but Stanza asks for a While I'm fine with this, it might make it difficult for two beginning players to bring to the table. The components are top-quality, as is always with Chip Theory. You get waterproof neoprene mats, plastic dice, and a box just the right size to store it all om. I have no complaints, I love this game! If you're looking for a tough, unique, and hilarious dice chucker, pick this one up!

Fun game. Grabbed some expansions and more gearlocs from the main website for a lot more variety.

This is so much fun to play solo or with friends. There is a range of difficulty offerings that will cater to the first time player to seasoned veterans. When one asses the time and thought put into literally every component of the game (literally down to event the inside of the box art) you realize you're buying entertainment and art. Amazing build and artistic quality and money well spent for 100s of hours of entertainment.

Excellent quality and a much needed expansion to help increase variability.

Every game will be different as you choose your adventure, gain skills for your gearlock, and hopefully defeat the villain. My only regret (and it's not worth reducing a star) is that the health (red) chips are a little flimsy in this set - but only by comparison to the high quality chips used for everything else in the game.

el juego es muy bueno, y todo llego dentro de la caja, pero venia muy mal protegido y la caja sufrio golpes en las esquinas, por el precio deberian cuidar mas para que no llegue con esos golpes

Great game! However the box was busted up and some plastic pieces were damaged.

This is an absolute must after you buy the base game AND after getting another Gearloc or two.

Importado pela Amazon com eficiência. Jogo muito bom.

Brilliant game, this is the small box version, perfect for storage.

Jogo muito bom. Vale muito a pena Qualidade dos componentes bem acima da média.
