This article provides no context, analysis or secondary sources as evidence of notability.--Gavin Collins 09:47, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Game-related deletions. --Gavin Collins 09:47, 15 October 2007 (UTC)--
  • Delete. Non-notable game. Keb25 09:49, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep A Steve Jackson (U.S.) game, based on the Munchkin (card game) game. Steve Jackson is notable for several reasons, which is detailed in his article, as are his games. Yngvarr 10:43, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
  • No opinion on this article, I have no knowledge of whether the game sold well or is otherwise notable. Just wanted to note that if consensus is to remove this article, then a redirect to Munchkin (role-playing games) would be useful. Sjakkalle (Check!) 11:27, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge Redirect to the very notable Munchkin (card game). Chunky Rice 13:12, 15 October 2007 Change to redirect, as almost the entire content of this article is already present in the card game article. -Chunky Rice 21:34, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep, and fix, or Merge The subject matter is notable enough for inclusion, even if the article hasn't included references yet. Rray 14:13, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge as per Chunky Rice's suggestion. A quick online search earlier didn't seem to turn up much (your results may vary). Of course this doesn't hit all possible print sources. --Craw-daddy | T | 14:24, 15 October 2007 (UTC) P.S. This has already been effectively merged, as this is mentioned in the article for Munchkin (card game) already. --Craw-daddy | T | 14:25, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Munchkin (card game) unless reliable sources are found to establish the notability of the RPG. While Steve Jackson Games is a notable publisher, that does not confer automatic notability on each of their games enough for an article. I would vote for a merge if it weren't already in the article on the (more widely noted) card game. Barno 20:53, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Merge in Munchkin (card game) (or is all the material already there?). Goochelaar 21:30, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep per Rray. Highly notable game and I'm surprised it's got to here. Stifle (talk) 19:43, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep — Per above. — RJH (talk) 19:55, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
