Munchkin: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles puts you right into the roles of the Turtles to team up and fight evil! This game takes the butt-kicking, backflipping ninja stylings of the TMNT and combines it with the dungeon-exploring, loot-hoarding gameplay of Munchkin! Play as Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo, and Raphael along with April O’Neil and Casey Jones to take on Shredder, Krang and even more as you race to level 10! Adopt special fighting styles and learn powerful Katas as you gain Levels and collect gear. The monsters of Munchkin have never been tougher, so now more than ever it’s important to team up with other players to unleash powerful abilities against your foes. Don’t want to let your friends get ahead? Team up with one of over a dozen different classic allies — from Master Splinter to Sally Pride! Based on the multi-generation inspiring Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comics and the original Munchkin game by Steve Jackson Games, Munchkin: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was developed by Jon Cohn with art by legendary artist and TMNT creator Kevin Eastman. This 168 card standalone game is for 3-6 players, ages 10 and up. It takes around 1-2 hours to play.
