About this game

Play the most-funded game in Kickstarter history anywhere with the Exploding Kittens® Official mobile game!

🐈💣

The mobile version of the game is available now, including the Party Pack, Betrayal, Streaking Kittens, and the all new Barking Kittens expansion! Test your skills against the AI, or jump online to play with friends and strangers!

In this highly-strategic, kitty-powered version of Russian Roulette, players draw cards until someone draws an Exploding Kitten, at which point they explode, they are dead, and they are out of t​he game -- unless that player has a Defuse card, which can defuse the Kitten using things like laser pointers, belly rubs, and catnip sandwiches. All of the other cards in the deck are used to move, mitigate, or avoid the Exploding Kittens.

KEY FEATURES:

- Exploding Kittens is a multiplayer card game for people who are into kittens and explosions and laser beams and sometimes goats.
- Play with 2 to 5 players across multiple phones in the same room, or online with friends or strangers
- Featuring original art by The Oatmeal
- New cards exclusive to the digital version of Exploding Kittens
- Digital versions of the hit expansions, including Streaking and Barking Kittens, as well as digital exclusive Betrayal and Party decks
- The digital version of the most backed game in Kickstarter history

Creat​ed by Elan Lee (Xbox, ARGs), Matthew Inman (The Oatmeal), and Shane Small (Xbox, Marvel).

Not like the tabletop game - it's been streamlined to work better on mobile by simplifying a couple of rules. Normally, this would worry me, but it's actually been done very well :) Unfortunately, I did not realize before purchase that the expansion packs are paid DLC, but oh well - it's not the end of the world. If you've played this and enjoyed it, I would very much recommend that you buy the tabletop version since it requires a bit more skill through bluffing :P

Highly addictive and super easy to learn. Game of chance and bluffs that's very fun to play. There are a few different card pack variations available at a small additional cost that mix up the game somewhat and help to keep the gameplay fresher for longer. Longevity might be subjective but it's something I'll probably still play a year from now. Would recommend if you're a fan of other card games such as Uno, crazy 8's and 7 card blackjack/switch. Great for when you haven't got friends over.

excellent game, I love the art (unlike the second game), love sound effects (unlike the second game), love the user interface. My only wish is for seeing the number of players who queued for specific expansion in matchmaking before I queue for any of them. like a small number that shows, for example, how many are now queued for base game or for latest expansion.
