submitted byMichael - 8 years ago
Q: Does the game become repetitive - once you know the answer to a card - such as the tacocat palindrom ? Not sure where the gameplay actually occurs - getting rid of cards etc. Thanks for any info.
submitted by TrueReview - 5 years ago
A: You don't answer questions so there is no answer to a card. The game isn't repetitive because each person decides how to use the cards they have randomly been dealt.
submitted byPamH - 5 years agoA: We play this game several times each week and never know who is going to win. While we don't like to draw the exploding kitten card, we aren't as worried about it as the first few times we played.

Q: Why did someone want to call this game exploding kittens as a cat lover I find the name offensive.
submitted by mare62 - 6 years ago
A: Small kittens would explode upon the amount of offensiveness in today's society. Probably puppies and baby otters as well.

submitted by Jason - 7 years ago

Exploding with fun
We loved Throw Throw Burrito and Throw Throw Avocado, and my son had played Exploding Kittens with a friend. He told me to buy it while I was ordering replacement burritos. (Do you have any replacement avocados you can sell me?) It has the same level of chaos and fun as the other games, but less chucking soft objects at each other.

Exploding Kittens
The characters and instructions on the cards are oddly gross, inappropriate, and simply an embarrassment. As a parent, I would never recommend this game for children of any age and as an adult, it’s not even worth the energy to unbox. Save yourself time and money by not purchasing.

What happened to the "meow" when you opened the box? I wish that was kept...

Easy to learn fun to play
This is a fun, part strategy/ part luck game fun for everyone! The rules are very simple and easy to catch on, which I like since I don’t have the patience to read and learn complicated games! If you’re like me you’ll love this game too!
