At New York Comic Con 2025, Yen Press, LLC announced the acquisition of Monster Eater: Delicious in Dungeon the Board Game for release in May 2026. Inspired by the popular 1998 Monster Maker board game, this exciting iteration of Delicious in Dungeon allows fans to play as their favorite characters and team up to explore dungeons, battle (or eat!) iconic monsters from the series, and earn victory points to win.
Delicious in Dungeon is the award-winning and bestselling series written by Ryoko Kui, released in English from Yen Press in May 2017.
Monster Eater: Delicious in Dungeon the Board Game
In this collaborative game combining the hit manga Delicious in Dungeon and the work of legendary game designer Ginichiro Suzuki, you and a party of 2–5 of your closest friends can delve the depths of the dungeon together, seeking fame, wealth, power, and more. But beware: Deadly monsters lie in wait—for you to dine on them!
Beloved for its unique premise, engaging characters, and detailed worldbuilding, the series received an anime adaptation that premiered on Netflix in January 2024. Later that year, the series won Best Manga at the Harvey Awards and Best Continuing Manga Series at the inaugural American Manga Awards. In addition to the complete manga series and box set, Yen Press also publishes Doodles by Ryoko Kui: Daydream Hour, Delicious in Dungeon World Guide: The Adventurer’s Bible, and Delicious in Dungeon World Guide: The Adventurer’s Bible, Complete Edition.
