Munchkin Deluxe

Great game!

This is a great game that my family really enjoys playing often. The components are high quality, the cards are easy to shuffle, which is always the mark of high quality cards to me, and the board is excellent. The rules were fairly hard to know if you digested all of the or not, but the game has a ton of flexibility in the rules such as trading cards between players and bargaining for help or other cards, so I had to put my OCD aside and just play. The rules flush themselves out as you go. The basic rules are super simple, so my advice is unless the rules say you can’t, you have a lot of options on how to approach the challenges you are presented to win the game. It is a very interactive game. There will be a lot of deal making and negotiating, so I really like that this game fosters teamwork among my kids in killing monsters. I would highly recommend this game. I have not even got any of the expansions, but this version of the game offers a ton of value for hours of fun on game nights. Also, I am glad I purchased the deluxe version of the game, as it is very clear where the cards belong and what level everyone in the game is currently at. It is not necessary, and my frugal self argued about spending the extra money on the Deluxe version, but I am glad I got it over the standard edition. Bottom line, it is a really fun game with pretty basic rules that remains exciting even after many repeated plays. It is a very social game with a lot of interaction, whether you like fighting monsters or not. And it is humorous.

Super jeu, très drôle et qui dure assez longtemps. On me l'a fait découvrir et j'ai décidé de l'acheter parce qu'il m'a beaucoup plu. C'est un jeu parfait à jouer entre amis ou même en famille. C'est bien une version anglaise que je voulais donc je suis contente de mon achat. SEULEMENT, une des photos du produit montre des figurines qui font office de pions. Je pensais donc recevoir le jeu avec des figurines mais ce sont en fait des petites cartes bien cartonnées et décorées qu'on utilise en tant que pions, on les voit d'ailleurs sur la photo montrant le dessous de la boîte de jeu. L'autre photo est donc mensongère, faites attention! J'ai donc mis une étoile en moins.

Munchkin is a great Dungeons and Dragons parody game, full of quirky humour and adorable graphics on the cards. This is a must game for any would-be geek/nerd. (Please note that the base game can be bought without the deluxe version, it just depends if you want the extras or not.) This version of Munchkin provides the base game card deck with character cards, 6 coloured plastic character tokens and a very simple 1-10 board to illustrate game progression. As mentioned you can buy it without the board or extras but play is a little more straight forward with them. There is space in the box to add in expansions but it could get messy. Thankfully each expansion to Munchkin is identifiable on the cards (you might have to scan through the deck to check). The game is both simple to dive into and great fun with great replayabilty. If you are a stickler for rules they come with the game and are dowloadable from the official Munchkin website. You play as a "Munchkin", who for all purposes is a generic treasure hunting Human character. Equip him/her with armour and weapons, change them into a thief or a cleric or wizard etc and even change their race from Dwarf to Elf and so on, using cards you have from your hand. Then "knock" on a door to find out what is in the next dungeon. The aim of the game is to get your character to level 10, simply by battling and defeating monsters. Of course it isn't as simpe as have more power than said monster. Find a monster who is too powerful to defeat and you can use potions/spells or abilities or even call on a friend (who may or may not help). Or maybe you can easily defeat the monster, in which case your friend could chose to help the monster defeat you. Things get ugly as you get closer to winning and it's never as straight forward as have the most powerful character. What I love is that even if someone is miles ahead they can come crashing down very easily. Game times can vary from 10mins to 1 hour. The more people you have the more competitive and longer the games can last. My experience has been that the various add ons are well worth a look and don't forget to checkout forums and other online stuff for variant rules etc. Buy this if: 1) You like quirky role playing games that make fun of the genre 2) You have more than 2 friends as above 3) Even if you don't like the above but want something different from Monopoly or Trivial pursuit 4) You may be willing to lose hours playing and replaying Don't buy this if: 1) You have no sense of humour 2) You really don't have more than 1 other friend 3) Monopoly is you favourtie game ever and there's nothing to beat it...

Fun. Bit hard to understand at first. After 1 session you are having a ton of fun. Not a 3 player game, though. Play with minimum 4

Very fast delivery Everything perfect!!!
