About "Rocks fall, everyone dies"

I have an interesting question about this card and an epic bug. If I remember correctly, an epic bug has regeneration and can't die because of bad stuff. Could an epic bug survive this card killing off the party?

As a follow up, could a Tough Zombie still loot?

Death from this card is like any other version of Death; if you have something that prevents you from dying, you won't be killed by this card, either.

Excellent. Thank you. This will be a wonderful curve ball for my group.

edit = After looking at the bug race again, I realized that the epic ability is to not lose levels to bad stuff, death can still happen.

Now I have a different situation for my previous question. Let's say I am a Mystic from Super Munchkin, can sacrifice a level instead of dying. I am in combat and lose, the monsters bad stuff is death. Could I play Rocks Fall, Everybody Dies and still use my ability to avoid death while everyone else dies?

I am more leaning towards that they wouldn't die because I didn't die, but not 100% sure since I am using a class ability to change the bad stuff outcome for just myself.

I'd agree with you that the other players would just lose a level if you choose to use the Mystic ability to save yourself. You need to die to be able to trigger the death side-effect of Rocks Fall, and you lost a level instead of dying, so that doesn't happen.

That's what I was leaning towards and will use that ruling, unless Andrew or Munchkin Man has some logic that says other.
