Kids Love Treasure! Announcing Munchkin Treasure Hunt
Steve Jackson Games and Toys"R"Us have partnered up on a brand new boardgame for kids! The basic idea of the game (fight monsters and steal their stuff) will be familiar to long-time Munchkin players, but no prior knowledge of Munchkin is required to start playing Treasure Hunt.
"Treasure Hunt is a fantastic way to introduce tabletop games to kids," said Andrew Hackard, designer of Munchkin Treasure Hunt. "We're thrilled to be working with Toys"R"Us so kids across the country can enjoy the game!"
Munchkin Treasure Hunt is a boardgame designed for two to six players, ages 6 and up. Playing time is one hour. For more information, go to munchkin.sjgames.com/treasurehunt.
