  Condoleeza Rice talks to the scuba mask.   May 15, 2024: Steve Jackson Games (And Munchkin ) In Forbes!As a writer, I'm thrilled when I get to use the lowercase version of "august," because it throws my editors for a loop every time. In entirely unrelated news, we're always honored when we make an appearance in such an august publication as Forbes. They recently ran a piece on their website to coincide with our (still ongoing!) Munchkin Big Box BackerKit campaign. (And the Big Box is only the beginning of some truly memorable releases as we ramp up to Munchkin's 25th anniversary in 2026!) It's a fun article, including some insight into the game's genesis that even I wasn't aware of. So, if you're interested in our august crowdfunding effort, you may want to march over there!

May 14, 2024: Shadowrun And More Sigmar Coming This September!It's that time again – time for us to share what's coming soon to Steve Jackson Games.
While it's only mid-May, we're already looking ahead to the two exciting Munchkin releases we have planned for September, and you're going to love them!
Munchkin Shadowrun is a collaboration between Steve Jackson Games and Catalyst Game Labs. It's based on classic Munchkin and the famous roleplaying game Shadowrun. Enter a cyberpunk future and encounter elves, trolls, and even dwarves. Included are 193 brand-new cards with fabulous art by Lar deSouza. You'll go on an exciting journey to dodge the corp with the goal of hacking into the Matrix for the win! This stand-alone game will retail for $39.95.
If you love Munchkin and Game Workshop's epic Warhammer, you'll want this brand-new addition to the line! Munchkin Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Dire Domains is the fourth expansion for Munchkin Warhammer . . .

May 13, 2024: Happy 25th Anniversary, Warehouse 23!We've been so busy lately with all kinds of exciting developments (like our ultra-successful Munchkin Big Box crowdfunding event) that one interesting bit of trivia almost went uncelebrated. Namely, the 25th anniversary of Warehouse 23! We'd been selling product online before that, but April 30, 1999, (on this very Daily Illuminator!) is when we publicly announced our new online store at Warehouse23.com with its own shiny URL and everything. We've gone through more than one update since then, all in our ongoing efforts to deliver the coolest gaming goodness directly to you. For those willing to risk a nostalgia bomb, you can check out the Wayback Machine archive of how Warehouse 23 looked in its earliest capture, from September 22, 1999. Just please don't try to order anything; we have enough problems already upholding the proper flow of linear time. -- Steven Marsh
May 12, 2024: Questionable Game Purchases?I'm not sure if this'll spark an interesting discussion or reveal my own idiosyncrasies, but that describes how I've approached social interactions for the past 30+ years. So, here's my query: What's a "questionable" game purchase you've made? This isn't necessarily the biggest game you've bought (big games are cool!) or a game you didn't enjoy (mistakes happen), but rather a purchase you knew going in that you couldn't quite justify, but – darn it – you pulled the trigger anyway. I've bought lots of stuff I've thought better of, but I'll share the first one that sprang to mind when I formulated this topic. I saw a dice set I loved; as they often are, it was a standard polyhedral set for . . . some big game out there? I think it had an ampersand? Not important. Anyway, I loved the set, but couldn't quite justify it, because I didn't really play the ampersand game; I played GURPS. And . . . [more]
