To play Tiny Epic Western, gather 1 to 4 players. First, set up the game by laying out the location cards in a circle. The game is played in rounds. In each round, deal poker cards between the locations. You'll place your posse members on the location cards. This gives you an action and counts as a bid for the location's resources. You'll also get a poker card of your own and use the two adjacent cards from a location to form a three - card hand. Manage your resources of Law, Money, and Force carefully. Use them to buy buildings and engage in gunfights. The goal is to have the highest stake in the most lucrative industry at the end of the game to earn bonus points. Add these to the points you've collected from buying buildings to determine the winner. Remember, this is the Kickstarter 'Deluxe' Edition, which includes the core game and all stretch goals, but paid add - ons from the Kickstarter Campaign are not included unless stated otherwise. Keep the game components in a dry and cool place to maintain their quality. If you have any purchase questions or need game advice, don't hesitate to contact The Game Steward.
