Inbox:Hardware: Munchkin - Boxes of Holding

Inbox features items that I have recently purchased or received.

Hardware covers the technology of game playing, whether PC, consoles or figurines on a board.

While I do love me some Munchkin for its chaotic multiplayer fun, I admit that it's rather chaotic when it comes to storage. It's a lot of cards and they can get quite shuffled about and messed up in the original box that it came in, especially with the Door and Treasure cards getting mixed up. The easy solution, of course, is to get a pair of simple cardboard card boxes or, alternatively, fancier deck boxes that exist for trading card games.

Steve Jackson games actually deals with this problem too, by releasing its very own pair of deck boxes to hold all your Munchkin cards, separated into Door and Treasure boxes. These aren't actually significantly different from regular old cardboard card boxes, actually, being made of cardboard themselves, but they are printed all over with Munchkin graphics and come with a pair of exclusive bonus cards as well. For the high asking price of $9.99 that's really not that great of a deal. However, the glossy printing is a lot more aesthetically pleasing than a plain white or brown cardbox box with "Munchkin" scrawled in permanent ink on it and the bonus cards are nice too.

Still, for what you get, it's not that great of a deal. But a must for fans. 6/10.
