Point of curiousity: do we have any Munchkin players here? I was introduced to this game last night, and I am TOTALLY HOOKED. I'm absolutely ITCHING to play it again. (Madler, I wish you hadn't gone home, you'd have loved it!) Basically, it's a card game played between 3-6 people. It's themed on Dungeons and Dragons, but satirically hilarious (hello, Pantyhose of Giant Strength! Watch out for the 3,872 Orcs card!). It plays a little like Magic: The Gathering but without all the resource management and tedious crap. Basically, you do all the dungeon crawling via the Door cards, and are rewarded with Treasure cards. Backstabbing, bribing, and (occasionally) cheating are encouraged. First player to Level 10 wins! And to boot, all the cards are illustrated by John Kovalic of Dork Tower fame. Awesome, awesome fun. This is a game I INSIST we try and play at the next Mutant Summit. Anybody else already into this?

Looks fun!
Funny you should mention that, I've been both into Magic Online and D&D Online as of late.

No, but it looks fantastic. I'm always keeping my eyes open for great board (or at least nonvideo) games to play with my friends, and Munchkin definitely looks like a serious contender to me.

I've introduced it a bunch of my friends, and pretty much everyone has at least enjoyed it. Some of the guys are REALLY excited about it. Definitely a fun game.
