I enjoyed it a lot
yes.
Fun game to pass the time. Took me around 6 hours to complete, Other time was trying to get a better score/beat developer score. I will continue to play it until I beat the times on every level :D worth a buy.
I'm recommending the game but only for those who are really into time management and only if on a deep sale. It is not very interesting but not the worst time management game I've ever played. There is some cute humor but not enough to make up for the rest. If Steam used a star system I would give it a 2 stars.
6/10
Reptitive game, time management over and over again.
Game is expensive.
I liked it

TLDR: Grindy. Dated. Derivative. Repetitive. Marginally funny for 12 labors style content with youth oriented art direction and tone.
Like so many other ressource management clicker game this one uses the sytem where you have a central HQ and workers run in and out of it as you click on a variety of hotspots around the map. This one is vaguely fantasy themed as you control what looks like frankenstein and some gremlins. Otherwise its the same as the rest. You gather food, wood, gold from hotspots that respawn. You can also use altars which stockpiles a ressource that allows you to trigger buff and prevent debuffs (monsters coming in to steal stuff). The entire game seems to be voice acted, which is great. However the voice acting talent is a little bit underpar. The music loops constantly the the point of driving you mad. The rendering is alright once your eyes adjust to it but it really is on the dated side of thing. Game consists of a bunch of levels where you have to start with food, and start harvesting the other ressources and clear obstacles by spending your initial food stockpile, up until the point where you reach a quota of ressources gathered, power ups used, or buildings completed. You are constantly re-doing the same things over and over again as the game gradually adds more elements to the mix. Its very drawn out. There is a customization shop for you to dress your gremlins and your frankenstein up but it is pointless.
In the end I found that the Weatherlords game from Alawar had overall greater polish than this title and was superior in every possible way except maybe the humoristic tone so this title is effectively made redundant.
First things first: This is a thumbs up because the game does nothing really wrong - it also isn't great at anything. Consider it a 51%, it passes base.
That aside, this is a generic, derivative time management game, with very mediocre visuals and a completely forgetable (and thankfully skipable) story. The attempts at humour were on the childish side for me, but the voice over was actually competent, a surprise for a game of this budget. The music and sound design are also competent, as in: repetitive but not horrible. As for the customization of the protagonists, it consists of hats and skins that you get as rewards, so... meh? On the positive side: No bugs or crashes. This will likely run on a potato.
Gameplay-wise, I found it way too easy for my tastes and very light on strategy. The level design is, you guessed it, competent enough, but not really interesting. It took no effort at all to finish all levels with gold stars, so if you're looking for something relaxing, this will maybe work for you. A little bit of planning and strategy will also allow you to beat most developers' times - which by the way is only necessary once for the achievement, making this an easy game to 100%.
All in all, it's alright, I guess. Competent enough is not a great recommendation I realize, but it's not a bad game for casual time management fans. Just wait for a sale.
First impression: generic casual time management game
They seem to have much the same mechanics as similar games from Alawar and elsewhere: clear obstacles in the road, harvest resources, build houses, click on approaching enemies, get mana to activate powerup spells. It's not better than most time management games I've seen, but then again, it's not much worse than most, either. There's no challenge in beating the timer for me, and on the other hand I'm not motivated to beat the dev time.
I'm basically thumbing this one down because it doesn't deserve a 100% score, which it now has. If you like this type of game, sure, go ahead and buy it, but personally, I'm uninstalling after I've done 6 levels in under 50 minutes.
This game runs fine on my old Windows XP computer.
Good game.
Level designs are good and music is soothing.
Best played in relaxing mode.
This game is fun. Not just because it's a well made time management game, but because the characters are quite silly and I like it :)
"Hum hum hum hum, you're gonna be a mushroom". Hillarious!
Trying to beat the develoupers times was frustrating but fun, just like a good challenge should be. And it has Steam achivements! yey!
The only sad thing about it is that The tiny tale 1 isn't on steam.
I was surprised by how much I liked this game!
I bought this game during th steam sale and blazed through it from start to finish in 6 hours. I'm probably much older than the intended demographic, but I still had a lot of fun with it. I'm interested by games with non-combat mechanics (or at least non-combat focuses), and I feel like TTT2 (3T2?) delivered on a game that was engaging and kid-friendly without being sacchrine or worse, patronizing.
The one thing that would take this from a 4 to a 5 in my mind is an increase in difficulty, or at least a better incentive for repeat playthroughs. I was able to make it through all the levels without ever having to retry a level. While I did go back and try to beat some of the developer's scores (and I did beat one!) I don't really have the urge to go through and beat all of them. Giving a better incentive to go back and beat the scores other than the single Steam achievement might help: maybe the player could win an extra flower and unlock additional costume pieces for beating developer scores, or bonus levels. I think the game is cute, but I can't see myself opening it up again 47 more times for the little achievement, nor do I feel motivated to go for the "inhuman" achievement. I feel like the developers WANT to create something that inspires players to go through it again and again, but I'm not sure there's enough here to warrant that much extra gameplay.
Also, I'm not sure what exactly the achievement for playing a single level for over 20 minutes was for, in that I can't imagine someone taking more that 20 minutes to finish a single round unless they went to do something else and forgot to press 'pause'.
To appeal to someone +14, certainly +18, I think having an option for more difficult objectives/settings might work well. I wish that there was, in general, even MORE to do to complete the puzzles. I feel like the tower/shrine building mechanic was interesting but not used nearly enough- I found those levels the most interesting and challenging just for the sheer amount of gremlin-power and resources they needed.
Without any changes, I think this is a game I would love to let my nieces and nephews play (all of them are between 7 and 12). This would be a great game for the ipad or other mobile device (I played this on my laptop).
The Tiny Tale 2 is a charming, fun game and I look forward to playing more of developer Running Pillow's creations!
I purchased this game for my youngest nephew, but I play it more than he does. The game is extremely addictive. Lots of levels, the graphics is good, good music and high replayablilty. The puzzles can be challenging especially for younger players. Good game.
Instructions not clear turned into a frog instead.
Pros:
[+] Challenging in a way.
[+] Gives you time to plan out your strategy before starting.
[+] Clear tutorial.
[+] Two Cuztomizable character.
[+] Soundtrack and Dialogues.
[+] Characters' sense of humor.
Recommendations:
[=] Could use more items. This is the reason why people are eager to play the later levels.
[=] And upgrades would be a fine addition like "additional movement speed" or "faster spell casting".
Cons:
[-] Terrible quality and boring cinematic during the game startup.
[-] Some levels that involves walking monsters requires you to do specific things the way the developer wants you to, this causes the level to be finished with less flexibility.
[-] The game could use more content. As it is, it's on a level as that of a facebook/tablet game.
Awesome little game that will calm and relax you, or bring out your competitive side. What will you choose?
"The Tiny Tale 2" (did I say then right,) puts you in control of the Troll and any number of gremlins. Your mission, collect food, wood and gold, to remove barriers and free more gremlins to collect more food, wood and gold so you can complete a set of tasks.
Oh. I almost forgot, there is magic as well. With enough mana and the correct shrines, you, the Troll master, may cast spells to grow more food, or make tasks cost less food or gold and other little tweaks.
What I like most is that you can have the game play at any rate that you want. If you are going for speed and want to kick some developer a**, crank up the speed (level times are compared to the developers level times). If you couldn't care less, turn the speed down play a leisurely level or five.
All and all, a nice experience that highly approve of.
