Munchkin

This is by far one of the funnest yet strangest games I've played.  It never gets old.  You can get cursed by a duck of doom, stab your buddy, steal treasure, and get eaten by plutonium dragons.  And don't forget the unspeakably awful indescribable horror.  I love this game.


The object of the game is to get to level ten.  You do this by killing monsters, selling items and stealing other peoples' levels.  The fun thing about this game is that you never know what's going to happen.  In the last game I played, I was at level 9 and about to win by killing a level 1 lame goblin, when my friends ganged up on me and amped up the lame goblin's power by combining it with a plutonium dragon.


Yes, I got eaten.


What's also fun is that there are approximately 5 million expansions to Munchkin, including a board game.  So you could have like a crazy Munchkin game including all of the cards from the sets you've gotten and just go crazy.  I think.

If you're looking for any strategy, you won't find all that much.  Most of the game is just based on luck: how many monsters and what treasures you draw.  But that doesn't take from the fun at all.

If you're looking for a fast-paced crazy game where you get to sell pretty balloons for no cost, then this game is for you.
