Where it came from
Too Many Bones was created by Josh J. Carlson and Adam Carlson and published by Chip Theory Games in 2017. Developed as a premium dice-building tactical RPG, the game emerged from a desire to blend heavy strategic depth with high-quality tactile components, specifically the use of custom-molded heat-transfer dice and neoprene mats rather than standard cardboard. Its design philosophy centers on asymmetric character growth and complex encounters that challenge players to manage resource exhaustion across a campaign.
Upon its release, the game garnered significant attention for its unconventional physical production, which prioritized durability and a unique table presence. The thematic art, illustrated to evoke a gritty, high-fantasy aesthetic, complements the mechanical focus on character skill trees and dice-based combat. It has since been recognized as a benchmark for boutique tabletop production, maintaining a dedicated following that values the intricate interplay between luck mitigation and long-term tactical planning.
