Exploding Kittens Good vs. Evil 2-5 Players - Ages 7+ - Inspired by Netflix Show - Party & Family Card Game for Kids & Adults

This game is so goofy and fun! Easy to learn with clear instructions. The box is small so it travels well. It’s a great strategy game and is suitable for a lot of ages (+7 but my friends in their mid 20’s loved it too)

Hilarious, entertaining, competitive, simple and strategic. Everything you want in a card game.

This is my son’s favorite game. I have a few of the exploding kittens games and they’re all so much fun to play with the family, it’s not hard to learn and great party game with friends

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?

This is a really fun game, the only problem is that you could just buy all the expansions and a base game. It wasn't that way for me, cause my cards are old and ripped up. I wish this game included the tower of power, cat butt, and favor cards. I like how it comes with a card organization tray, and the recipes are really nice. I submitted a lot of custom recipes on their recipes page (it's in the instructions). The recipes are very calculated, so the games take less time, it goes from the 30 minutes with a base game and lots of expansions to 15 minutes with the carefully crafted recipes. It's a big box though, so you can't easily take it on trips. The drawings on some of the cards look slightly evil though.

Its a game. Buy it or dont. Quality is good.

Super fun game and my whole family enjoys playing it. It's challenging enough to make it interesting and competitive, but simple enough that even my 7 year old can play it.

I purchased this game for my granddaughter. Her and her friends love it but adults have a hard time playing. I am giving it 5 stars because the kids love it.
