As a follow-up to Gearbox Software and 2K Games' Borderlands 2: Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands represented a bit of a new direction for the Borderlands franchise. While a lot of the core elements of the series remained — the oddball humor, the cel-shaded art style, the looter shooter gameplay — Tiny Tina's Wonderlands infused these elements with its own brand of wackiness. With the titular explosives expert leading the charge, players were able to delve into Borderlands' take on a fantasy tabletop adventure, and the results have been met with praise from both critics and fans.
