Tiny Tina's Wonderlands isn't the first time that first-person shooter franchise Borderlands has delved into a realm of high fantasy--developer Gearbox Software initially explored this genre in the Borderlands 2 DLC-turned-spin-off Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep back in 2013. Almost a decade later, Gearbox is venturing back into the tabletop board game of Bunkers & Badasses for a self-contained tale of swords, sorcery, and the power of stories. While it has inherited a number of the more annoying Borderlands quirks, Wonderlands is still a comfortably familiar experience that wears its passion for tabletop gaming on its sleeve.

As a standalone Borderlands spin-off, Wonderlands doesn't require knowledge of previous Borderlands games to jump into. Instead of focusing on a story about Vault Hunters pursuing alien ruins that house artifacts of incredible power, Wonderlands shifts the focus to recurring side-character Tiny Tina and her latest tabletop gaming session. All of this takes place in a game that closely follows the Borderlands loot-and-shoot gameplay formula--constantly collecting new weapons, growing your character's unique skills, and facing hordes of enemies--and features running commentary from Tina, Valentine, and Frette.

Tiny Tina is once again calling the shots as the Bunker Master, and alongside the characters of Valentine and Frette--voiced by Andy Samberg and Wanda Sykes--it's up to you to become the Fatemaker who is destined to save the land from the menace of the evil Dragonlord.
