Exploding Kittens

Exploding Kittens is a kitty-powered version of Russian Roulette. Players take turns drawing cards until someone draws an exploding kitten and loses the game. The deck is made up of cards that let you avoid exploding by peeking at cards before you draw, forcing your opponent to draw multiple cards, or shuffling the deck.

About the game

What is Exploding Kittens

The game gets more and more intense with each card you draw because fewer cards left in the deck means a greater chance of drawing the kitten and exploding in a fiery ball of feline hyperbole.

IvanBern7/10

Fun card game with a ton of take-that. Great as a filler, starter or end of a game night.

Fun with children, funny to see the tension of where the exploding kitten is! Update. It gets better with expansions! Barking kittens adds more strategy to the game.
