Munchkin Experience

World of Munchkin is a game which is based on the dungeons and dragons theme, players play together as a team or against each other, they are required to pick up random cards and roll dices in order to fight monsters, pick up rewards. The game is very similar to role playing games you see on a console or computers but in the physical form of cards except "with none of that stupid role playing stuff." 
I find Munchkin rather a difficult game to understand at first, it requires some reading to be able to understand the rules of the game. But considering the game is similar to an RPG game the rules allow the game to be somewhat flexible unlike other card games like Pokemon and Yu-gi-oh! which are strictly based on combat and each player has his own deck of cards. The Munchkin style card game is based on 1 deck of cards which is shared among multiple players. The style of card game may be an original concept however something similar can be enjoyed on a digital platform and can be much more engaged with the games environment as well. The World of Munchkin card games will bring together people to have a fun together in a commune way which digital games will offer something different.
I personally find Munchkin not that enjoyable, but that may be because I’m not really a fan of card games. But for the concept and idea I can definitely give the game thumbs up, especially because I think the game would be great fun to be played with your family or a group of friends. I have had a taste of digital games which has influenced my own personally benchmark of games you could say which is why I’m not so interested in Munchkin but putting that aside in comparison to other card / board games it is a game you can expect to get a laugh from.
