Selected Articles

“A Less Obnoxious Munchkin. With Ponies.”
– Eric Henn (sprites and dice)

“It’s got enough complexity to be interesting without becoming overwhelming, and enough humor to be funny without that taking over the game. I said that the pony aspect wasn’t truly necessary, but it’s a fun addition. Overall, it’s a well-designed, enjoyable game I would play again.”
