"Wait!" you say. "What's Munchkin?"

Go down in the dungeon. Kill everything you meet. Backstab your friends and steal their stuff. Grab the treasure and run.

Admit it. You love it.

This award-winning card game, designed by Steve Jackson, captures the essence of the dungeon experience . . . with none of that stupid roleplaying stuff. You and your friends compete to kill monsters and grab magic items. And what magic items! Don the Horny Helmet and the Boots of Butt-Kicking. Wield the Staff of Napalm . . . or maybe the Chainsaw of Bloody Dismemberment. Start by slaughtering the Potted Plant and the Drooling Slime, and work your way up to the Plutonium Dragon . . .

And it's illustrated by John Kovalic! Fast-playing and silly, Munchkin can reduce any group to hysteria. And, while they're laughing, you can steal their stuff.

Munchkin won the Origins award for Best Traditional Card Game of 2001!


In the fall of 2009, we released two 15-card boosters for Munchkin: Fairy Dust and Waiting for Santa. We printed the cards with foil, which was definitely shiny but caused many of the cards to curl unacceptably. We recalled those sets as soon as we realized the problem was real . . . but a lot made it through to retail, and we know that some stores kept selling them even after we'd made the announcement and refunded the retailers' payments.

If you bought either of these sets from your local retailer, we encourage you to to return it to them for a refund or exchange. We have already refunded everything the distributors and retailers paid for these two sets, so we hope they will be happy to refund/exchange for you. If that doesn't work for you, OR if you got the Waiting for Santa booster as part of the Munchkin Holiday Edition, you may exchange the curly foil set for the new printing of the same set (not foiled, not curly) with us, via Warehouse 23.

Step 1: Cut the tops from each card in the pack. The top half inch (1.3cm) or so – enough to get the title of the card – is perfect.

Step 2: Mail the tops and your mailing address (don't assume we'll be able to read the return address on the envelope by the time it gets to us) to Warehouse 23.

Step 3: We'll mail out a replacement booster set via USPS. We'll throw in some Munchkin promo items, just to say "thank you."
