Munchkin: Quacked Quest — November 19

Available on: PC, Switch

Quacked Quest is based on the Munchkin card game, which is not just about fighting monsters and scoring loot–backstabbing your friends is just as important. This procedurally generated dungeon-crawler operates the same way. You can fight your way through castles and caverns in co-op, but there are lots of opportunities to turn on the party and steal all the gold for yourself.

Black Future ’88 — November 21

Available on: PC, Switch

Munchkin isn’t the only procedurally generated adventure dropping this week. Black Future ’88 is set in a tower, and the layout changes each time you take another run to the top. Along the way, you’ll dodge lasers and fight bosses until you reach the architect on the highest floor. You can make a vertical run in local co-op too.
