Munchkin
Quite a few years ago I received the card game Munchkin as a gift from mom. I recall reading through it, finding it quite silly, then putting it away and never actually playing it. I regularly play lots of other games with friends, but never this one. Everyone once in a while I remember Munchkin, sitting on a shelf, but I’d never actually played it until today.
Tonight I played a round with friends after work and it is great. Wow! I was really missing out! The silliness does add to the fun, but I must say the mechanics of the game really work. Its not a long or complex game like Twilight Imperium or even Battlestar Galactica. You can play it in 45 minutes with three people, if everyone keeps the pace moving.
Can’t wait for another round. Highly recommended!
