Title: Munchkins?
Post by: menace64 on September 24, 2009, 10:24:20 PM

I've got a bunch of the cards; wondering if y'all hold an interest in this zany and horrific card game.

Also, there are four base sets I still don't own: Super Munchkin, Cthulhu, Munchkin Bites, and Pirates. Which should I buy next?

I have munchkin bites but I have to say i like the classic munchkin the best. I dont like super munchkin or munchkin fu. I want to try the munckin cthulu.

I play flux! One crazy game. There is practically no rules until you make them which is a weird way of playing a game, drawing cards to make rules to win. Simple but fun.

Fluxx is great.  But Munchkin is better.  I own all the classic Munchkin sets (1-7) and it is just a great time.  The best mix is sets 1-5.  Sets 6 & 7 add a different twist.

I own the first set, but I haven't played it with anyone yet.  I try to introduce a new game at my board game party each month so eventually I'll get to it.  The latest additions have been: Dominion (fun deck-building card game), Citadels (Another fun card game), Incan Gold (Simple push your luck card game), Thurn and Taxis and Smallword. Introducing Pandemic at the next gathering.  I've probably read the rules to Munchkin 5 times so it's due to hit the table soon.

There's a flowchart that explains the gameplay very well.  Its somewhere on the resources page on the munchkins site.  I printed out a couple copies and keep it in the box for teaching people the game.

Thats an ace game, I love it. Village is such a good card in it.

My wife:  "I play a village +1 card + 2 actions, I play a smithy + 3 cards, I play a village + 1 card + 2 actions, I play a market +1 card + 1 action + 1 buy plus 1 treasure, I play a cellar discard 3 cards to draw 3.  Crap 7, I take a gold".
