Game of Thrones was a phenomenal show, despite its somewhat rushed final season.
There was something so utterly magical about the chatter it generated. You’d pop into school or work the next day and the previous night’s episode would be all anybody was talking about.
I’d even go as far as saying that the theorising was almost as fun as watching the show itself.
It feels like it’s only a matter of time before a major AAA open-world RPG adaptation of Game of Thrones is announced.

That’s surely a guaranteed recipe for success, but it’s not a game we’ve yet seen come to fruition.
There is a Game of Thrones RPG on the way though, just not one of the AAA video game variety.
Instead, Game of Thrones fans will soon be able to dive into an epic tabletop adventure thanks to the upcoming Tiny Epic Game of Thrones.
Baldur’s Gate 3 should appeal to Game of Thrones fans with its varied cast of characters.
Tiny Epic Game of Thrones will see players compete for control of various territories, all in a bid to claim the Iron Throne.
Players will determine their actions via a roll of the die. As reported by Dicebreaker, if the entry is similar to other Tiny Epic games, the player will gain more dice to roll as their chosen entity strengthens.
Tiny Epic Game of Thrones marks the first time that a Tiny Epic game has been based on an established IP - and what an IP to secure.
Player actions include sailing, marching, whispering, and plotting - in other words, it plays out very much like your average Game of Thrones episode.
The question is, which approach will you take in order to secure the throne? Are you a ruthless Cersei Lannister? A scheming Littlefinger? A fair and noble Jon Snow?
Tiny Epic Game of Thrones will take place across six rounds and the player with the most influence by the end of those rounds wins, taking the throne.
Between one and four players can get involved with games lasting for 45 to 60 minutes - perfect for those who are put off by the months-long campaigns of games like Dungeons & Dragons.
Tiny Epic Game of Thrones doesn’t have a release date just yet but is due to launch in Q3 of this year which runs from July to September.
