January 29, 2010: Replacement Info Correction

There was a significant error in the Jan. 27 announcement about booster pack replacements. It's been corrected in the copy of the announcement now being displayed.

If you got Munchkin Waiting for Santa in the boxed Munchkin Holiday Edition, please do NOT return it to the retailer. The retailer will have no idea what to do with it, because we did NOT recall the whole Munchkin Holiday Edition. He may even strike you with a Shopping Maul (+3 vs. annoying customers). If you want a less-shiny but much-flatter set, return it to Warehouse 23, per the instructions in the Jan. 27 announcement.

Retailers only got refunds for individual booster packs, and only those can legitimately be returned to a store.

Thanks for bearing with us as we lurch blindly through the dungeon, bouncing off the walls and monsters, with chickens on our heads. We are trying, we really are, and we will keep trying. (Ouch!)

Munchkin 2010 Silver Piece Rule For February 2010

Munchkin Coin

Note: This rule only applies to the 2010 Munchkin Silver Piece. If you are using the 2008 or 2009 coins, check the archive page for the appropriate rules from those years.

In any game of Munchkin or its sequels, you may flip the 2010 Munchkin Silver Piece after kicking open the door and finding a monster. On heads (the Munchkin), you may end your turn immediately (even skipping Charity) and pass the monster to the player on your left, who must start his turn by fighting it immediately rather than kicking open his own door. On tails (the Chibithulhu), you must turn over a second Door card and, if possible, apply it to the fight you are already in.

In Munchkin Quest, you may flip the 2010 Munchkin Silver Piece after exploring a new room and exposing a monster. On heads (the Munchkin), you may back out through the link you entered from, even if you do not have Move to do so, without suffering any ill effects from the room or taking a hit from the monster. This ends your turn immediately. On tails (the Chibithulhu), turn over a second Monster card and add it to the room you are in.

Remember that you can only use one Munchkin coin per game of Munchkin or Munchkin Quest, even if you have several coins available.
