GAME DESCRIPTION: Exploding kittens is a card game for people who are into kittens and explosions and laser beams and sometimes goats.

In this highly-strategic, kitty-powered version of Russian roulette, players draw cards until someone draws an exploding kitten, at which point they explode, they are Dead, and they are out of the game — unless that player has a defuse card, which can defuse the kitten using things like laser pointers, belly rubs, and catnip sandwiches. All of the other cards in the deck are used to move, mitigate, or avoid the exploding kittens.

Exploding Kittens is the most-backed crowdfunded project ever, the most-funded game in the history of Kickstarter, and has paved the way for peace and tranquility in the modern world.

How To Play In A Nutshell:

  • In the deck of cards are some “Exploding Kittens.” You play the game by putting the deck face down and taking turns drawing cards until someone draws an Exploding Kitten.
  • When that happens, that person explodes. They are now dead and out of the game. The more cards you draw, the greater your chances of drawing an Exploding Kitten!
  • This process continues until there’s only one player left, who wins the game.
