April 25, 2025: Some Day My (Re)Prints Will Come

Sometimes I wonder if things are kind of quiet on the release schedule. I mean, sure, your humble Daily Illuminator poster knows some of the secrets we're working on behind the scenes, but that handsomely rugged individual dare not speak them. Besides, those are nifty future plans.

I realize, though, that a lot of effort goes into keeping our awesome games still available, through reprints. In the past handful of weeks, we've seen the return of Munchkin Shadowrun, Zombie Dice, our Weather Dice Set, Munchkin Pony Excess, and others.

We don't tend to make a big deal about these because they're not quite as exciting as new releases (unless it's something we haven't seen in a while). That's especially true if we've gauged our reprint demands correctly and we get the restock in before the item gets hard to find for retailers or customers. Yet each of these projects still takes work on our part: errata checking, prepress review, shipping to us, warehousing, getting them where they need to go, and so on.

For those who are curious, recent reprints are always listed on our New Releases page, which also has links to reprints from further back – for example, here's the link to all the new and reprint items we've done for 2025 so far.
