Tiny Homes: The Board Game 🏡

Your own tiny home

Do you like entertaining, crafts, or lazy Sundays reading? In Tiny Homes you will design a home that best suits your hobbies and tastes. You'll start each game with a selection of activities that you'd like to do in your new home, then head to the showroom to start picking out features and dreaming up your design. 

The game includes premade "homesteaders" or you can create your own custom character with a hand-picked set of preferences.

The Showroom

In each round you'll visit the Showroom to collect features to add to your tiny home. Race ahead to grab the feature you want, or take your time to collect more! There are seven types of features you can add to your home, in a variety of shapes and formats: Bedrooms, Kitchens, Bathrooms, Seating & Surfaces, Work & Hobbies, Entertainment, and Storage. You'll need at least one of each to make a functional home, and more to meet your homesteader's requirements. You can also adopt a cat from the cat cafe!

Designing your home

The objective of the game is to move into a house that meets each of your goals while also being the tiniest home you can design (that's the name of the game)! You'll also get a boost to your home's rating if you finish before your friends, waste fewer materials, and keep your sleeping cats happy.

Home Foundation boards have sliders to make them larger or smaller as you puzzle out your design. Two-sided and foldaway features can be flipped saving you valuable space. Quality features that add luxury, comfort, high tech, or eco-friendly designs to your home will also add to your final rating at the end of the game. Get creative, get crazy, pack in anything you want, just keep it tiny!

A Thank You Gift!!

Tiny Homes: The Card Game, designed by Karl Lange and Dann May with art by Dominique Vassie, is a card game inspired by the board game.

Bid for features and activities, adding them to your growing hand of cards, optimizing the range and quality of your home's features, while drafting activities that can make use of them. As with the board game, an efficient design with a mix of all features, and paying attention to the customisation of your home to suit your activities is the best way to build. 

Inspired directly by the dynamics of the board game and a love of classic games such as For Sale, Tiny Homes: The Card Game, is a light, approachable game with intriguing choices.

Welcome to Tiny Homes: The Board Game

Tiny Homes: The Board Game, is game about fitting everything you need to live happily into the smallest and most efficient space. Each player starts with a small but expandable floorplan onto which they will place feature tiles to design their dream tiny home.

Each round you and your neighbors walk through the Tiny Homes showroom warehouse and pick out Features (tiles) of varying shapes and sizes to add to your home. Rush ahead to secure a feature or take your time to pick up more. You'll want to collect at least one square of each feature type: bathroom/laundry, kitchen, bedroom, seat/surface, storage, productivity/hobby, and entertainment, but you will want more of certain features depending on the activities you are hoping to be able to do in your home!

There are also three Styles of feature:

Quality Features - These features bear the tick of quality. When you choose a Quality feature, take one of the available quality tokens — they may be eco-friendly, luxurious, high tech, or extra comfortable! Add the token to your Tiny Home Owner card to score at the end of the game based on your personal tastes.

Compact Features - These tiles have floorspace on the back, meaning the feature can fold away completely. You'll be able to use the feature, then flip the tile, clearing space for you to move easily about your house and score activities (and help keep it nice and small).

Dual-Use Features - These spaces have two uses, on one side might be a couch, but flip it over and it becomes a desk!

Combining these tiles in clever ways to maximize (and minimize!) your tiny home is what the game is all about.
