About this game

The full Gloomhaven tactical combat experience shrunk to fit in your pocket for solo play. Buttons & Bugs maintains the signature hand-management and card-loss system while using a tiny hex grid and simplified monster AI. A complete campaign with branching paths unfolds across multiple sessions, and the mercenary class system lets you unlock new abilities as you progress. Proof that Gloomhaven's core design works at any scale.
