"Monster Eater" - English Fan Translation of the Dungeon Meshi Board Game

Description
THIS IS AN UNOFFICAL FAN TRANSLATION OF THE "MONSTER EATER" BOARD GAME.

For new fans - this board game technically has spoilers up until volume 11 of the manga. Just as a fair warning in case you want to be completely blind to content!

Thanks to the collective efforts of the community, I was able to put together this English version of the game for everyone to enjoy. Please let me know if you notice any mistakes and I will update the workshop upload as soon as possible. A huge thanks to the other fans who provided translations and high-res files for me to photoshop everything together and make this TTS project.

Included is a fully translated rule book, tokens for coins, food, and mana, the sword token, five game progress cards, and five upper/lower floor tokens.

Please enjoy and remember to support Dungeon Meshi! I have loved this series for many years now and can't wait for the anime adaptation.

As of September 2023, the final chapter of Dungeon Meshi has been released. Supplemental books have been promised to release January 2024 alongside the anime by Studio Trigger. This series and it's ending is especially emotional for me. It's the ending of my all time favorite manga and what I believe to be one of the best fantasy manga penned to paper. Every bit of the 97 chapters was fantastic.

For all the new fans coming from either the hype around the manga or the anime adaptation, please enjoy! I hope you get the same sense of fulfillment reading and watching I had throughout these years.

Shouldn't Falin be listed as Upper and not Lower?

Because the translation wasn't 100% clear - you can have a maximum of 5 item cards, cooked monster cards and boss monster cards total . So 4 cooked monster cards and 1 item card, but if you get another, you must discard.

@OldBoy yeah, that's how I understood it as well, it just seemed too powerful to be the case. Thanks for clearing that up!

@NirDine technically yes you can, as per the definition: "[...] A locksmith or ninja who is not in the exhausted state may reroll up to x dice rolled in 1a Battle by becoming exhausted". Cooking a monster after defeating it is part of the 1a Battle step so it works.
Cannot be done if the character who has reroll participated in the fight though as characters are exhausted the moment they are selected to fight.

Would you happen to know if you can use Reroll with the 2d6 for cooking the monsters after a you defeat them?

@45 Rats in a trenchcoat , there are very limited ways to reacquire magic token. Among them is the mana root you mentioned and iirc there is a market you can play the Trading card to spend 2 coins to earn magic tokens back. Just like the manga (or show), magic is hard to acquire within the dungeon.

Not sure if I'm missing something because I haven't played a whole lot yet, but how do you regain magic tokens? I know there is the mana root item. But it seems there should be more ways to get magic tokens back. Thank you!!!

My friends and I have been playing a bunch, It's really, really fun.
The flavour of the parties and their skills are really fun also, our only problems is that monsters in general are almost too easy to beat with vanilla parties.

Can't thank you enough for your translation, this is my favourite manga and it makes me incredibly happy to be able to play it!
