Discover a pocket-sized, solo-first adventure that captures the spirit of Gloomhaven in a fraction of the footprint: Gloomhaven: Buttons & Bugs. This standalone, solo play game features an original campaign story written by Isaac Childres and unfolds after the events of Gloomhaven and Forgotten Circles. You play as a wannabe hero who — in a mischievous twist — encounters the Aesther recluse Hail and is miniaturized into a mouse-sized traveler in a realm of lawlessness and survival.
Your mission is simple in a never-simple world: find a way back to your normal size by navigating the Crooked Bone and convincing Hail to restore you. Every scenario is a compact, single-card encounter that pits your lone mercenary against a handful of enemies with streamlined actions and AI.
Gameplay at a glance
Each mercenary carries a hand of four double‑sided ability cards, and you can reuse them twice—front and back—before they’re discarded. Attacks are resolved with a die and a modifier table, delivering satisfying decisions without the heft of a full campaign. And as you level up through the campaign, both your ability cards and the modifier table grow stronger, unlocking new options and greater resilience.
- Compact, solo-friendly campaign: A rich, narrative-driven experience designed for solo play and quick sessions.
- Original story by Isaac Childres: An authentic Gloomhaven universe extension with a fresh, perilous setting.
- Streamlined combat & AI: Simple, accessible rules with tactical depth; enemies react via the modifier table and die rolls.
- Progression that matters: Level up to improve cards and capabilities, making each playthrough feel new.
- Unique setting & theme: Shrunk heroes, a dangerous city backdrop, and a witty, perilous underworld at the Crooked Bone.
If you crave a Gloomhaven-inspired experience that respects your time while delivering big adventure, Buttons & Bugs is your perfect pick. It’s the ideal entry point for curious new players and a clever, portable challenge for veterans seeking a compact, solitaire dungeon crawl.
