The end of the world is the theme for a new Munchkin title set to release in November from Steve Jackson Games: Munchkin Apocalypse. I’d say SJG is going to roll this out just in time for the much-publicized “end” of the Mayan calendar on December 12. The stand-alone game adds a new type of card to the Munchkin universe, called “Disasters,” and four new classes to play. A new, alternate victory condition for the game is also introduced and involves seven “Seals of the Apocalypse” within the game.
Like other other titles in the line, the cards in Munchkin Apocalypse are compatible with the other games, which players can combine together if they choose.
Munchkin Apocalypse includes 168 cards and a special six-sided die. The suggested retail price will be $24.95 and the game cards will feature the art of fan-favorite John Kovalic.
