Exploding Kittens Catchables #1: Lumber Cat & Donut Cat, Collectible Toy Tossing Games for Adult & Kids Ages 8+, Fun Family Games, Ideal for Party & Travel

We’re big fans of Exploding Kittens and this is a really fun physical twist on the original card game. It combines the familiar humour and characters with an active, quick-reaction element that works especially well with kids and families. The concept is simple to pick up, and rounds are short enough to keep everyone engaged without dragging. The Catchables themselves are bright, lightweight, and durable, making them easy to throw, catch, and grab without worrying about breakage. It adds a nice physical energy to game time, which is a refreshing change from purely tabletop play. The game scales well for different ages — younger players enjoy the silliness and action, while older players still get competitive fun out of it. Pros: • Easy to learn and quick to play • Great for families and mixed-age groups • Encourages movement and interaction • Fun Exploding Kittens artwork and humour • Good quality, sturdy pieces Cons: • Needs a bit of space to play comfortably • May be less appealing if you prefer quiet, seated games • Replay value depends on group enthusiasm rather than strategy depth Overall, this is a lively, well-designed party-style game that’s perfect for family game nights, playdates, or burning off some energy indoors. A great addition for anyone who already enjoys the Exploding Kittens universe or wants a more active game experience

Had great fun playing as a family. Age range was 10 years to 61 years. What a laugh trying to complete the tasks. Would recommend.

When I ordered this I initially had in mind a game that could be played at Christmas with other family members. However we had some friends over, got drunk, and decided to give it a go. The pack itself is good quality. The cards are nicely done and the catchables are actually a lot softer than I was expecting (which is good as you'll probably be dropping them lots). Thankfully there's no danger of them damaging anything. On the downside the instructions could be better. It could be that because we were slightly inebriated that it wasn't obvious to us what we were supposed to be doing with our face-up cards after we'd successfully completed our turn. Although I think the instructions could be clearer. We figured out part way through the game that we were supposed to keep them and they weren't to go in the discard pile. Apart from needing clearer instructions it is quite a fun game. We've got quite high ceilings which makes trying to do a number of actions before catching the cat a bit easier. You could also try playing it outside. Overall we had a good time playing it. It's a fun game with lots of laughs to be had. Good for both children and adults alike. Recommended.

Fun and novel game, great to play with kids, compliant teens and adults. You need to have a bit of a sense of humour and not mind making a bit of a fool of yourself though…! So one teen in our group wasn’t particularly keen. She loved watching us all play from the sidelines though! Reasonable value and great that you can mix and match with other packs, but it doesn’t have a huge amount of replay value.

The product itself was fine. But it was absolutely stinking of cigarette smoke.

This is so much fun to play. We laughed so much over Christmas. We ended up buying more for friends as presents. You do need to get up and move around and it is equally as difficult and fun for an adult to complete and enjoy as it is for kids. The family members who couldn’t play due to health really loved watching everyone play.. and laughed at/with them! My son loves the toys in it and now wants to collect them all! They are squishy so when you throw them they are easier to catch. You have to do whatever is on the cards that you pick up.. so you end up having to do things like throw it while standing on one leg, shouting a name out and tapping at table all before you catch the ball/cat toy. It gets very silly then more cards you have.

We just love this game. We take it along with others in the collection on holiday and always have fun. Good for the whole family to enjoy Easy to learn how to play and good quality Good value for money.

This was a gift for my niece who really likes it. Fun game, good value.
