About the game

What you do in a play session

Get ready for more chaos and laughs with Munchkin 5: De-Ranged! This 112-card expansion injects the right amount of Steve Jackson and John Kovalic's twisted humor into the Munchkin experience. The headline feature is the new Ranger class, who can tame monsters and ride them into battle – imagine that! But the fun doesn't stop there; the game gets even wilder with new treasures to hunt, like the Philosopher's Scone, and crazy equipment upgrades, such as Racing Stripes for your steed. Beware, as bizarre new monsters have appeared to hinder you, including the dreaded Telemarketer, the Poultrygeist, and even Undead Clowns. And that's not all: the expansion introduces imported monsters, created by European Munchkin teams, now available in English to terrorize (or become loot for) players. Think of the Brothers Grimm and the Snerks! Munchkin 5: De-Ranged promises all the fun and mayhem of a prestige class, without the hassle of actual role-playing. If you're already a Munchkin fan and crave more cards, monsters, and general pandemonium, this expansion is a perfect addition to spice up your games.
