November 12, 2018: Munchkin Musings: November 2018

Hello, Munchkin fans! It's that time when I talk to y'all about what's going on here in scenic Munchkin Valley.

Right at the top, I have to mention the Kickstarter for Munchkin Steampunk: Girl Genius. It's going very well, with lots of stretch goals already reached and plenty more to come. The Kickstarter ends on November 21; if you want extra steampunky Foglio goodness, this is your best way to make sure you get it! We're anticipating having this to backers next summer.

We've shipped the Munchkin Party Pack to our distributors, so it should be finding its way to game stores very soon. Make sure to keep watching the Daily Illuminator and munchkin.game for ideas on setting up your own sweet Munchkin party!

Speaking of Kickstarter and shipping games, Munchkin Unicorns and Friends reached our warehouse on November 13 and is on track to reach U.S. backers in (or before!) December. You can read Phil's update here. If you missed the Kickstarter, Unicorns and Friends will be in stores in January.

Our friends at USAopoly and IDW have been busy, too! Some stores have already gotten copies of IDW's Munchkin Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles to sell, and many of the Kickstarter backers have received their rewards. Munchkin Harry Potter Deluxe, from USAopoly, will be on the shelves at your game store by the end of November. Both of these games are fantastic and we're very excited to hear from people who've had a chance to play them.

Finally, we're still a bit giddy over our spiffy new Munchkin site. If you haven't checked it out, please do! It should be easier to navigate and it's WAY more mobile-friendly than the older design. If you still have a lot of bookmarks that point to the old site, time to start updating them; we'll be sunsetting that site at some point in the next few months.

If you want to get our attention, you can post in our forums – we check them frequently – or hit us up on social media with the hashtag #PlayMunchkin. We always love hearing from our fans!

We'll see everyone for our year-end wrap-up in December!
