Go down in the dungeon! Kill everything you meet! Backstab your friends and steal their stuff! Grab the booty (treasure!) and run! All in a day’s work for Steve Jackson Games’ Munchkin! Admit it. You love it! Now, imagine if “you” could, literally, don the Boots of Butt-Kicking whilst wielding the Staff of Napalm and leap into the Munchkin fray with your own devastating powers of mischief and mayhem!
In October, Alliance and Steve Jackson Games teamed-up during Alliance's Open House to present an opportunity of manic proportions for attendees to achieve Munchkin immortality — while supporting a worthy charity, t’boot!
SJG peddled off an in-game “Effect” Bookmark - with Dork Tower cartoonist extraordinaire John Kovalic tapped to render the winning piece in his zany, inimitable style - slated to be distributed to game stores in early 2011.
Well, that time is now (well, in the very near future, actually, but as close to 'now' as you're likely to get)! The Bookmark ["Festering Jesting"] with a winning bid of $1,000, will be stashed, exclusively, in the April issue of Game Trade Magazine (GTM #134)!
Not to be outdone, the Munchkin Meisters at Steve Jackson Games have also created a second Munchkin Bookmark ["Excessive Exchanges"] to be inserted in this very issue! That's right! That's Two Exclusive Munchkin Bookmarks to be had in GTM #134 (and to ultimately unleash upon your fellow Munchkinators)!
"Bookmarks" can be used during combat in any game of Munchkin or its sequels, or Munchkin Quest. Bookmarks may be used only once per game - unless you change sex. If you change sex, you may use a second Bookmark. You may not use two in a game, no matter what.
So, check your orders and stock up heartily for the demand that's destined to be generated for copies of GTM #134!
