The game is easy to learn and quick to play — about 15 minutes per round — which keeps everyone engaged without dragging on.

Perfect for groups from 2 to 10 players and guaranteed to bring fun to any party or family time.

This game is FUN. If you are a fan of the artist's blog, you'll enjoy it that much more, but knowing previous work is unnecessary. The game is fun, and at first reading sounds very complicated, but it is in fact simple and quick. And a lot of laughs. Don't be afraid of the cards or illustrations... They are quirky and strange (like the blog :-) but not offensive. Okay, the TEENSIEST bit rude, yes. But funny. Wildly creative.This game allows 2-5 people to play. If you may have a larger group, do buy a second set of cards. It is money well invested.The game is like russian roulette. Each person draws a card. At any time you may draw an exploding kitten, and if you do, you die for the remainder of the hand. But, of course, there is more involved than that!!For the first round, keep the directions handy. You'll need them. For subsequent rounds you will probably not need them much at all.To begin play, everyone is dealt a hand of four cards (look at them but show no one) and one defuse card. The defuse card is your lifeline. Hide it within your hand. (Once you draw an exploding kitten card, you are dead for the hand. UNLESS you can play a defuse card.) You can play any card you have available... Some cards allow you to draw a card from another player's hand, some allow you to peek at what's coming in the draw pile, or to skip your turn, or make the next player draw twice... You CAN play anything, but don't NEED to play anything. Once you are finished playing, or if you've decided not to play anything, draw a card (and hope it isn't an exploding kitten. If it is, play your defuse)If you run out of cards, that's okay. Draw when it's your turn. If you accumulate so many cards they are difficult to hold, that's okay, too. (And better for saving your life!) Keep drawing at your turn. You are not penalized for cards you hold or play. The only goal is to survive drawing the exploding kittens within the deck, or to cause others to draw them. (there is an exploding kitten card in the deck for all but one player. One player survives the hand)Making any sense?? Order the cards, play a hand... It will all be made clear. It is a fast and silly game, very fun. Particularly with people who will enjoy the strange quirky weirdness of the illustrations. Choose your friends well.If you are still on the fence, just do it! What are a few exploded kittens between friends?

My grandkids love their cats. When I saw this card game I knew I had to get it for them. I played the game with them and quickly realized this was more than a card game. This was a game of strategy! It was so much fun. My grandkids are 10 and 8 and they love playing this game. My daughter and her husband like to keep the kids off screens and play a lot of games at night. This quickly became one of their favorites!
