Tiny Tina's Wonderlands

Despite a couple of minor flaws and the fact that it won’t be to everyone’s taste, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is a spin-off that has managed to surpass Borderlands 3 in terms of story, characters and humor.

With a unique sense of humor, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands delivers a fantastic personalization of your avatar. The mechanics make the game very pleasant even if it is not new from the previous series, we consider it as a stand-alone game from the main series.

Tiny Tina's Wonderland is an ode to tabletop role-playing games that will transport the player to a first person perspective. The casual and humorous approach of Tina fits just perfectly within the game, and with all of the general improvements over Borderlands this spin-off might as well surpass the main game.

Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is Gearbox’s most complete game in this genre; with it diverse gameplay enough to keep you busy for a good amount of time. Whether you are a Borderlands fan or not, Tiny Tina deserves a shot.

Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is a fantastic spinoff that manages to combine everything that makes Borderlands great, and even improves on the formula with welcome additions such as magic and a brand new fantasy setting. Sure, the humor and the loot system can be a little bit overwhelming at times, but even then, it's still an awesome time. The shooting and the gameplay mechanics feel responsive and precise, plus the 120FPS mode really makes the game feel much smoother than the standard 60FPS and 4K mode.

Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is one of the best games ever by Gearbox. It is a lot of fun, with a great duration and gameplay that invites you to spend countless hours playing. If you have some friends that play it too, it is a blast.

Wonderlands doesn’t rewrite the Borderlands formula, but remixes it into a riotous, winking love letter to tabletop role-playing. Gearbox lands another Critical Hit. [Issue#14, p.80]

Tiny Tina's Wonderlands doesn't kick the board to reformulate the Borderlands series, but it brings enough fresh air to boost the series. The game characters, dialogues and craziness are much more interesting, dynamic and fun than in previous entries, and they provide a good base on which to build future titles in the franchise.

Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands does have it's faults, but all in all - it's a good game and you can really see the love and care that were put into it.

Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is a fun Borderlands fantasy spin-off that manages to create its own identity. The great gunplay and the series trademark humor, combined with the fantasy setting, create a game that is a joy to play and a must-buy for Borderlands fans.

Despite the optimization issues, the network problems with the Shift servers that cause momentarily framerate drops, the fact that there are some unexplainable crashes and various bugs, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is a truly wonderful experience for all Borderlands fans. It is different enough, so veterans won’t see it just a reskin, and familiar enough to get lost in the game world. The voice acting is the best up to date, with a tremendous performance from actors like Will Arnett. Tina’s voice is Ashly Burch, who gives a very different performance here compared to Horizon’s Alloy. Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands has plenty of issues and there is room for improvement, but it is a good game with plenty to keep you entertained.

Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is the fantastic fantasy version of Borderlands, and as the spinoff progresses, it closely remembers previous successes, which at times felt a little unoriginal. Thankfully, with excellent writing, hilarious performances from an all-star cast, and ridiculous combat shines and make this tabletop-inspired blast festival absolutely worth it.

If you don’t mind the odd teething problem, there really is so much to love about Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands. The campaign will keep you glued to your seat thanks to its excellent storytelling and fantastic voice cast. And its world outshines just about any we’ve seen in the Borderlands series yet; it’s huge, and offers so much scope to explore even beyond the main story and side quests. Its endgame is promising too, offering plenty of reason to keep jumping back in. Is it Gearbox’s best game to date? Once those few bugs are tidied up, it might just be. And considering it was made under pandemic restrictions, that really is a feat.

While Tiny Tina's Wonderlands doesn't offer a vastly different experience from what came before, it does venture outside of its comfort zone enough to establish its own identity. It's an excellent extension of the already great Assault On Dragon Keep, and is a worthwhile adventure for any fan of the series, with extensive build crafting, an entertaining cast of characters, and a world worth exploring.

Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is still very much a Borderlands game — which is both its biggest quality and to its detriment. Its characters, story, and endlessly enticing gameplay will keep you coming back for more until you’ve explored everything and seen all Wonderlands have to offer. Sadly, while the change of setting and theme has brought out the best in its writing, much of Borderlands’ core systems haven’t caught up.

Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands might as well be an expansion for Borderlands 3. Only fans of Borderlands who can tolerate Tiny Tina should consider this game.

Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is exactly what you’d expect from a full-game follow-up to Assault on Dragon’s Keep: a raucous, often hilarious parody of Dungeons & Dragons built on Borderlands’ looter-shooter foundations. Bigger isn’t always better, and it can feel needlessly drawn out at times, but the shooter-looter action, wild energy, and Tina’s Bunker Master antics are a whole lot of fun.

Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is a quirky and silly looter shooter that simply doesn't distinguish itself enough from the mainline Borderlands games. It's still a lot of fun, though, especially when you play with friends.

Tiny Tina’s an average DM in this tabletop Borderlands spin-off. The story lacks a punch with unnecessary politics inserted, although the humour can sometimes still be pretty great. Combat is still great and fun, with a fantasy setting and few additions sprinkled on the familiar BL formula, but Wonderlands misses out on the potential to make a truly new experience that will differ from its very close cousin, condemning itself to be appealing to mostly Borderlands fans, which still poses a good game, but misses the chance to become a great one.

Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is, for better or worse, simply another Borderlands. Is that something you still crave, the simplistic gameplay and the irreverent humour? That’s for you to decide.

Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is an easy recommendation for Borderlands and D&D fans, but those who have had their fill of the franchise may get tired of the repetitive combat and constantly looting useless items. The technical problems are the biggest issue, so hopefully, Gearbox Software releases new Tiny Tina's Wonderlands updates to address them soon.

A reskinned Borderlands 3 that would’ve been much better off as an expansion, given it’s too short to justify the outrageously high price tag and too long to hide the lack of variety and new ideas.
