Exploding Kittens: Original Edition

A card game for people who are into kittens and explosions and laser beams and sometimes goats.

Family-friendly, party game for 2-5 players (up to 9 players when combined with any other edition). Exploding Kittens is the most-backed project in Kickstarter history and all cards feature illustrations by The Oatmeal.

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.

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.
