Tiny Tina's Wonderlands Reviews
Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is a fantasy-themed Borderlands spin-off that's hilarious, action-packed, and ridiculous, even if it plays it a bit safe.
Better than Borderlands 3, but not quite reaching the heights of Borderlands 2 at its best.
Despite an endearing commitment to its relentlessly positive tone, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands almost feels designed by a dice roll.
An entertaining and silly mix of fantasy and shooting, with a great cast making up for a slight lack of variety.
A reskinned Borderlands 3 that would've been much better off as an expansion, given it's too short to justify the outrageously high price tag and too long to hide the lack of variety and new ideas.
Wonderlands is upbeat and fun from start to finish, offering a rewarding adventure filled with goofy characters, imaginative bosses, and a great sense of ownership over your character through it all.
Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands breathes weird, new life into the stale franchise
Tiny Tina's Wonderlands retreads the same mechanical and narrative ground as Borderlands 3, ultimately creating a chapter in the franchise that's fun but forgettable.
Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands is more Borderlands, and the lighter fantasy fare might actually get people to dive in for the first time. With that in mind, it’s still more Borderlands, so the same basic formula isn’t going to magically change your stance if you’re a lapsed fan.
Wonderlands is the safest, most paint-by-numbers, product-of-the-time game I’ve played in a while, and a serving of the same thing Gearbox has been dishing up for 10 years minus the humor. It’s the absolute opposite of avant-garde and simply reuses the Borderlands formula without improving on it in any tangible manner. While it’s more tolerable as a multiplayer game given that you’ll more readily be able to overlook its story and writing, it’s still a disappointing spin-off that takes away more from the source material than it gives back.
Wonderlands injects a dose of RPG and madness into the "looter shooter" formula. The result is a game full of surprises and good ideas, and the most complete and fun Borderlands to date.

Wonderlands mixes over-the-top combat, wonderfully absurd guns, interesting classes, and fun characters to create the best version of this series I've ever played. It's weirdly wholesome, patently absurd, and frequently obnoxious, but the intent feels far purer than what you might expect. When you then add in the excellent voice acting, and the fact that you can play this through with friends and strangers, you get a really entertaining FPS RPG that I'd be happy to recommend to anyone.
Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is an ode to tabletop role-playing games that transports us to a world where we will live the game in the first person. The humorous and casual touch of Tina feels that it is not even painted and the improvements with respect to Borderlands make this spin-off practically surpass it.

Given that all my progress from the review build is about to be wiped, I’m not sure I’ll go through it all again to start re-grinding the endgame, but perhaps on a new class. Melee this time? That fact is what I really want to see is some substantial leaps forward for this series, as it’s starting to feel pretty dated in a lot of ways, but I also have to understand what Wonderlands is, a game Gearbox made from home during the pandemic that’s meant to be a stopgap before Borderlands 4. And I do think it succeeds at that job well enough to please most fans.
Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands does enough to solidify its place among the better entries in the Borderlands franchise.
Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is a parody of the role-playing board game Borderlands that, as a spin-off, fulfils both in terms of gameplay and the new progression systems, delivering a fun and addictive proposal that is halfway through the interpretation of its overworld. A remarkable game that I enjoyed, beyond the heavy text, because in the shooting and aesthetics it shows its greatest virtues.

Slicing through mobs to trade up my weapons is fun, and sometimes an amusing line of dialogue makes everything seem great again. Gearbox could’ve done a lot more with the next installment in the Borderlands' series than this. It all got old, too quickly, and it made me just want to boot up Borderlands 2 with my friends again, instead.
The excellent gunplay and the good RPG features are the best elements that Gearbox has created in this weird-yet-great Borderlands fantasy spin-off. While not flawless, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands can be enjoyed in 20+ hours, even if it can become boring if approached in single-player mode.

Gameplay and graphics wise, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands may not push the series forward but it's one of the best games with its very fun and memorable quests that sometimes sets a new standard for what a side quest should be in a video game
