All the news for Munchkin, Munchkin Quest, and munchkinry in general.

November 18, 2009: Ultra-Rare Munchkin Item on Sale Today!

At some point during the day today, November 18, we'll be making an ultra-rare Munchkin item available on Warehouse 23. How rare? We've got just 30 -- that's it.

These items will be sold on a "first come, first served" basis. The first 30 orders will be processed based on the time stamp in our database. If a payment bounces, we'll move on to the next order.

What is this mysterious item? When will it become available? Follow us on Twitter (or watch our Twitter feed on the right hand side of the front page) to get hints and the "go buy now!" announcement!

November 16, 2009: A Couple Of Reminders

If you aren't following us on Twitter, you're missing out on a lot of discussion of upcoming projects (and your daily dose of random silliness). There's no better time than right now to start!

Also, we've been very pleased with the sales of the iPhone Munchkin Level Counter to date, but it occurs to us that there may be some of you who bought iPhones after we released this app and didn't realize it was available. It includes in-game benefits for Munchkin (including Epic Munchkin) and Munchkin Quest that change every game (and the longer you wait to claim them, the better they get). Bonus: there are also counters for Chez Geek, SPANC, and a build-your-own counter option for all those other games that are out there!

October 26, 2009: Card Curling Issues with Fairy Dust and Waiting For Santa

Steve posted a fairly lengthy Daily Illuminator on Friday about curl issues we are seeing with the two new mini-expansions. Rather than repeat what he said, I'll just point that way and let you go read it.

(Update: Steve has posted a followup message that I encourage everyone to read.)

Also, a reminder: the office will be effectively CLOSED this Friday, October 30, for our annual Game Day. Don't expect e-mail to be answered or Warehouse 23 orders to be processed, and most of us won't be at our desks to get phone calls. Things will be back to normal (relatively speaking) on Monday.

October 16, 2009: Listening at the Door

Over on the Daily Illuminator, we've posted a house rule that we think is worth trying. Go check it out and send us your feedback!

October 5, 2009: Meet The Czar!

Munchkin Czar Andrew Hackard (hey, that's me!) will be attending Rincon in Tucson, Ariz. from October 9 through 11. He's going to be playing lots of games, but there's every chance a few games of Munchkin and Munchkin Quest will sneak in there . . . and we're going to make sure he's WELL supplied with promo items to hand out!

If you're in the neighborhood, c'mon by and say howdy!

September 29, 2009: Where Geek? WEREgeek!

We at SJ Games are always happy to see Munchkin get mentioned on the Web, and this webcomic made our collective week. Thanks to Alina Pete for a great laugh.

(SJ adds: It's SO true. Look at the two little tables pushed together. Yep, that's what you have to do. Darn clubs don't have tables big enough for a card game . . .)

September 21, 2009: Aww, How Cute . . .

Right up until they EAT YOUR SOUL.

We've posted information about the SEVEN new types of Chibithulhu that will soon be available on Warehouse 23. All but the Mega-Chibilthulhu will also be available from your FLGS; the Mega is a W23 exclusive!

If you want to see the Chibithulhus in their unnatural habitat, head over to the Chibithulhu Gallery . . . but please leave a note for your next of kin before you do.
