This is the scary part, because in true Russian roulette style this could be an Exploding Kitten card which causes you to explode (hopefully not literally) and knocks you out of the game.īefore the game, you prepare the deck with enough Exploding Kitten cards to blow up all but one of the players. There are additional 'advanced play' rules which use different combinations of cards to give you extra card stealing and deck searching powers.Įach turn you can play as many cards from your hand as you like, but once you're done you always have to end your turn by drawing a new card (unless you've played a card that says otherwise). There are some cards with no instructions these need to be collected into pairs which can then be played to allow you to steal a random card from another player. Instruction cards - each one has its own unique caption and artwork

For the most part, you just follow the instructions on the cards to help you skip draws, force other players to draw, steal cards or manipulate the deck. The rules are nice and straightforward to pick up.

After a massively successful Kickstarter campaign at the beginning of 2015, Exploding Kittens landed on my doormat at the beginning of this month.
