Kick Down The Door! Munchkin Second Edition Has Launched
Munchkin Second Edition includes upgrades and enhancements to the game fans have loved for a quarter century. Setup and gameplay are faster than ever, with a predetermined set of starting cards that help to create a more balanced starting point. A new turn phase – Listen at The Door – has been added, and it works alongside the new Gold Pieces mechanic. Players can now use coins to micro-bribe their opponents and make change when selling Items for levels. The Loot The Room phase has been modified to give players additional choices, and the win condition has been updated to allow a shared victory for a helper, regardless of that player's role or level.
