Tiny Tin Tactics

Dive into the Virtual training gauntlet as an elite breacher, tasked with clearing rooms with smart use of weapons and items!

OVERVIEW

Tiny Tin Tactics is a singleplayer action game with grid-based tactical combat and an emphasis on fast setup. Pick a weapon, shuffle and order the decks, and draw the first level to begin! The game also features a difficulty selection system which is as simple as swapping a few card types during startup.

GAMEPLAY

Enter levels with randomized item and enemy placement, and approach each situation with cautious agression to survive all the way to the end. The combat system is simple- enemies immediately deal damage to you if you're in their line of sight on their turn. You, meanwhile, spend your turn selecting between one of three actions that combine moving, shooting, and using items. When you use a weapon, you roll against your target's Armor value with the weapon's allocated dice and number modifiers.

REPLAYABILITY

Tiny Tin Tactics uses a simple and highly varied Encounter and Danger level system. Each level card has its encounter deck list and a numerical ranking based off difficulty of the level. There's a total of 4 difficulty ratings, and 3 levels in each, totalling out to 12 total individual levels. During setup, the player shuffles all 4 decks separately and draws from each, putting them in order with the lowest danger value on top. Each difficulty setting is of equal length of 4 levels, but they have unique values for each, sometimes using multiple of the same deck.

On top of this, the player gets to decide between one of three weapons, each equally effective within their own playstyle, only getting more interesting when combined with smart use of the items that can be found on the map.
