Description

Exploding Kittens is a fast-paced card game where players take turns drawing cards, hoping to avoid the dreaded Exploding Kitten. Drawing one of these feline bombs eliminates you from the game, unless you have a Defuse card to disarm it using tactics such as kitten yoga or laser pointers.

Players use a variety of action cards to mitigate risk, sabotage opponents, or peek at the deck to prepare for what's coming. It is a tense and humorous game of risk management as players try to be the last one not exploded. The game combines set collection elements with push your luck, ensuring that no two games are ever the same.
