The game itself, is somewhat of a Russian Roulet style game, where you take turns drawing cards, praying that you don't draw the exploding kitten. The game is wacky, and the art and captions on the cards are hilarious, with just a touch of disturbing. Your purpose is actually to defuse the kittens if possible and survive until the end of the game. For starters, the kittens are trying to blow up you, your home, your city, the world, etc. While this game may sound awful, what with blowing up kittens and all, it is actually relatively innocuous. In fact, the video embedded on their website states, ' Exploding Kittens Explained in 100 Seconds.' Feel free to check out the video in the link below: The rules are simple, and should not take more than 5 minutes for people to understand them sufficiently to get started. Thus begins my first installment of my Game Review series: Exploding Kittens!Įxploding Kittens is a card game that involves some strategy and a lot of luck. Seeing as how I thoroughly enjoy (most of) them, I figured I could share them with you all as well, in the hopes that you may also enjoy them! That being said, I have had exposure to a wide variety of card and board games.
I was fortunate enough to marry a wonderful woman who's family was the same. We have always enjoyed spending time with one another and playing games. I hope this post finds you well! Growing up, my family has always been a close-knit unit.
