About the game
What you do in a play session
If you're already hooked on the adrenaline of Tiny Epic Dungeons, get ready for more chaos and fun with the Potions & Perils mini expansion! This little gem adds Mixy Goblins to the enemy deck, and these guys aren't your average goblins. When you defeat them, prepare for an explosion of surprises: you'll draw a Potion Card that can be either a new threat or a handy item to use later! It's like a game of Russian roulette with alchemy, where every victory against a Mixy Goblin might grant you a powerful item or trigger a hilarious (and possibly dangerous) effect. In addition to this explosive novelty, the expansion introduces new dungeon bosses, minions, and goblins, each with their own unique challenges. This means even the most seasoned Tiny Epic Dungeons veterans will have to break a sweat to overcome these new threats. The expansion maintains the essence of the base game, with tile placement to build the dungeon and varied hero powers, but adds an extra layer of unpredictability and strategy. It's perfect for those who want to spice up their games, adding more variety and unexpected moments. If you enjoy cooperative games with a touch of luck and escalating challenges, this expansion is for you!

Frequently Asked Questions
Quick answers before you buy
Does this expansion work on its own, or do I need the base game?
This is a mini expansion, so you absolutely NEED to have the base game Tiny Epic Dungeons to play with the Potions & Perils cards and components.
What exactly do the Mixy Goblins do?
When you defeat a Mixy Goblin, you draw a Potion Card. This card can either give you a useful item (a potion to use later) or trigger an immediate negative effect, like a new monster appearing or something worse!
Does it significantly increase the game's complexity?
Not really. The overall complexity remains similar to the base game. The main change is the addition of another enemy type and the unpredictability of the Potion Cards, which add extra spice without overwhelming the rules.
How many players does this expansion support?
It supports the same player count as the base game, which is 1 to 4 players. It works well in both solo mode and cooperative play with friends.
Is it worth it for someone who already owns the base game?
Absolutely! If you enjoy the Tiny Epic Dungeons experience and want more variety and surprise moments, this expansion delivers just that, without taking up too much table space or budget.
Are the new bosses and goblins very difficult?
They are designed to add an extra challenge, testing even the most experienced players. The difficulty increases slightly, but that's what makes the expansion interesting for those who have already mastered the base game.
