Fun boardgame based on Munchkin
First off I would really recommend this for people who are familiar with the Munchkin card game. If you like the card game chances are you will enjoy the board game. Although the gameplay is somewhat different it definitely helps to know how to play the card game. It is more complicated because of the fact that you lay down dungeon tiles and have to keep track of monsters and such but that is what makes it fun! The additional rules on the dungeon tiles add to the fun as well.
I bought this for my boyfriend as a Christmas present and we brought it over to his friend's house so we could try it out. We played it with four people and just glanced over the rules and delved into the game. We figured that we could consult the rules as we went along (This makes it more fun but it can take longer). Of course we did some things that might be against some of the rules but we learned for the next time. We also noticed that the game came with a die that had 6 colored sides to it two of which we did not have player tokens for. The reason for this is that the expansion Munchkin Quest 2: Looking for Trouble has the two extra player pieces along with additional cards rules etc... It took us longer than usual to play through the game because we were trying to get the monster movement and who owns what monster down but after a few turns we were more confident. Next time we play it will probably take less time because we would know how everything works.
I enjoyed the game and everyone else seemed to like it as well. The only problem is that we can't always play because it takes up so much time.
Overall it was a very fun game as long as you don't mind the complexities of Munchkin's transition to the board game. And as with most board games it takes some time to play (the box actually states that gameplay can take up to 3 hours!). However I would check out the reviews on [...] as they do a better job explaining it than me!More detail ...
