Munchkin Dungeon is a board game released in 2020 for 2–5 players, 60–90 minutes per game, and ages 14 and up. It was designed by Eric M. Lang and Andrea Chiarvesio and its main mechanics are Take That.
In Munchkin Dungeon, players enter a dungeon and attempt to collect the most treasure and achieve the highest character level. They have to push their luck if they want to succeed in their adventure, but if they come across a foe that's a little too big to face, they can always run away. If players choose to take the cowardly (albeit occasionally logical) route of avoiding danger, they earn shame, which will be counted against them at the end of the game. You can't be a hero without exhibiting a little bravery!
Munchkin Dungeon supports 2–5 players according to the catalogue. This range comes from the publisher’s listed player count, so the game can be set up for any group size within it. Some setups, rules and scoring details may still vary by player count, so check your edition’s rulebook for the exact configuration.
The listed playing time for Munchkin Dungeon is 60–90 minutes. This is the publisher’s estimate for a full game. The actual duration depends on the group, the player count and familiarity with the rules: first sessions usually run longer, while experienced groups often finish faster. Setup and teaching time are not included in this estimate.
The catalogue lists Munchkin Dungeon for ages 14 and up. This is the publisher’s recommendation and reflects reading demands, rule complexity and small components rather than theme alone. Younger players can often join with help from an adult, so check the age guidance on your edition and consider your group’s experience with board games.
Munchkin Dungeon has a complexity rating of 2.2 out of 5 from BoardGameGeek players, which makes it a medium-light game.
