Munchkin Digital - Pathfinder is Coming on December 9th!

[p][/p][p]Greetings, fellow loot-hoarders! We recently announced that Munchkin: Pathfinder is crashing the party in the Munchkin Digital, and it’s coming soon to a device near you on December 9th! The worlds of Munchkin and the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game collide in this new standalone expansion, bringing you the Munchkin experience you know and love, with exciting new cards of all varieties straight from the fantasy world of Golarion.[/p][p]For all you dungeon-dwellers who haven’t played Munchkin: Pathfinder on the tabletop, you may be wondering how this expansion differs from the Munchkin Digital you’re familiar with. Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered: join us as we spill the beans on some of the shiny new toys coming your way, because who doesn’t love having a few more ways to backstab your buddies?[/p][p][/p][h2]Welcome to Golarion![/h2][p][/p][p]Strap in, adventurers, because Munchkin: Pathfinder yanks you out of the familiar dungeon crawl you’re used to, and plops you into the wild, wizardly world of Pathfinder’s Golarion! It’s a lovely place: ancient ruins teeming with eldritch horrors, legendary dragons who probably owe a lot in taxes, and enough gods to make your cleric’s head spin. This is a world where heroes aren’t born, they’re forged — often in the fires of bad decisions and cursed artifacts — but forged nonetheless, and that’s where you come in![/p][p]In Munchkin: Pathfinder, you’ll be building an adventurer, kicking down doors, and plundering treasure as you always have, but now with the lovely monsters of Golarion to contend with! [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]You’ll tangle with delights such as the Akata, a tentacled space beast that’s basically a cosmic cat with a grudge, or the absolutely lovely Bloatmage, who’s just dying to give you a hug! But it’s not all doom and gloom; these baddies — and the 168 new cards in this new expansion — come to you with familiar Munchkin flair, so you can count on cartoony art and hilariously hazardous punny perils to bring some levity to your adventures.[/p][p][/p][h2]New Classes[/h2][p][/p][p]There are four new classes in town, and they'll have you rethinking your whole stab-and-grab strategy! These aren’t your grandmother’s warriors and wizards — these are Golarion-flavored powerhouses ready to wreak havoc and chew bubblegum… and they’re definitely out of bubblegum.[/p][p][/p][p][/p]
  • [p]Alchemist: These mad mixologists love going into battle with only their strongest potions, ready to lob them at their enemies for explosive delights, or turn them into gold for some sweet, sweet cash. In other words, the Alchemist gives you additional combat bonuses and gold pieces for Items that you play in combat and sell respectively.[/p][p] [/p]
  • [p]Necromancer: When you have an undead entourage to do your bidding, is there really a reason to fight fair? The Necromancer sure doesn’t think so, and is all too happy to torment her friends\[?] with shambling horrors by reviving monsters from the discard pile and adding them to the fight.[/p][p] [/p]
  • [p]Summoner: Turn a solo scrap into a surprise party of pain with the Summoner, who is able to drag monsters from her hand into the fray and play them as one-shot combat bonuses. Who needs friends when you have a whole pocket dimension of backup?[/p][p] [/p]
  • [p]Witch: Wherever the Witch goes, Bad Stuff follows. No, literally — the Witch can discard a monster and inflict their Bad Stuff on another player as a Curse. These crafty casters thrive on sabotage, slinging spells at their opponents and protecting themselves from Curses at the same time with the help of their trusty familiar.[/p]
[p][/p][h2]Factions[/h2][p][/p][p]Elf, Dwarf, so what? In Golarion, what’s really important are the cool secret clubs you’re in, and that’s why instead of Races, you’ll be joining a faction instead! Factions, much like classes, give you unique perks, each one incentivizing a different playstyle in your adventuring endeavors. [/p][p][/p][p][/p]
  • [p]Pathfinders: They share the name of the game, so you know they’re important. Pathfinders are adept at peeking at hidden dangers, allowing you to scope out the top two cards when you Kick Open the Door, discarding one and putting the other back. Nothing like ruining somebody else’s day with a little bit of insider info![/p][p] [/p]
  • [p]Red Mantis Assassins: These sneaky stabbers specialize in opportunistic combat, able to discard from their hand to get wicked bonuses when they’re Looking for Trouble. And when the threat looms a little too large? They’re also very gifted in the art of Running Away.[/p][p] [/p]
  • [p]Eagle Knights: These do-gooder defenders of freedom are the opposite of Red Mantis Assassins, smashing evil with righteous fury. Eagle Knights can discard for combat bonuses, and are so committed to their cause that they’re quite literally bad at Running Away.[/p][p] [/p]
  • [p]Hellknights: The first rule of being a Hellknight is that you never take off the armor. The second rule of being a Hellknight is that you never take off the armor. Because, why would you, when it looks so cool? These edgy warriors get a native +5 combat bonus, but aren’t allowed to wear other Armor or Headgear. Worth it? Probably.[/p]
[p][/p][h2]Goblins[/h2][p][/p][p]You fight one Goblin, you fight ‘em all! These pint-sized pyromaniacs are a new kind of monster that get their own special sauce in Munchkin: Pathfinder. When you have a Goblin in your hand, you can play it to help any other Goblin in combat, without using a Wandering Monster card. This can quickly turn a simple skirmish into a green-skinned mosh pit! You’ll find Goblins, Mob Goblins, Blog Goblins, Hemogoblins… it’s like herding cats, if the cats were armed with oversized knives and a death wish.[/p][p][/p][h2]Munchkin Digital - Pathfinder is Coming Soon![/h2][p][/p][p]There you have it, munchkins — Munchkin: Pathfinder is set to level up your dungeon dives with Golarion’s grit when it arrives to Munchkin Digital on December 9th! Whether you’re a Pathfinder purist or just here for the backstabbing, there are plenty of new shenanigans just waiting to be had. Keep your eyes peeled on new announcements by joining us on Facebook, Bluesky, and the Dire Wolf Discord! And last but not least, be sure to Wishlist the game on Steam today![/p][p][/p]
