context_page_description: Kobolds Ate My Baby! is an independently published role-playing game from 9th Level Games, a small-press publisher and designer of humorous role-playing games based in Pennsylvania. The name is a derivative reference to the Azaria Chamberlain disappearance and the famous misquote, "A dingo ate my baby!". The Super Deluxx Edition was still designed by 9th Level Games but is published by Dork Storm Press.
context_section_description: The company was founded by Dan Landis and Chris O'Neill while in high school together.  As of 2001, the company had four employees, including the founders.  9LG's first games were Adventure! The W¸rlde of Kroson and In the Company of Rats, introduced at Origins 1999; these was followed by KAMB, developed in one month for Gen Con 1999.
  Currently, 9th Level Games is transitioning out publishing to focus primarily on design.  In December 2005, Dork Storm Press (DSP) released Kobolds Ate My Baby! Super Deluxx Edition, a game that was designed by 9LG and published by DSP.  This edition features illustrations by John Kovalic, the creator of Dork Tower.
  On March 4, 2013, 9th Level initiated a 30-day Kickstarter campaign to raise funds for a new printing of KAMB. Aiming for a pledge target of $11,000, the fundraiser earned $65,817 in total, meeting and exceeding all "stretch goals" for the fundraiser, including a related printing of a Munchkin booster pack based on the game.
