Take your exploding kittens and your extra defuse and shuffle those into the deck of cards. So for a four player game, there will be three exploding kittens. To determine the number of exploding kittens, it will be the number of players minus 1. Every person at the table gets 1 defuse card, then everyone is dealt four cards. You start by taking out all of the defuses and exploding kitten cards from the deck. If you are the last person left at the table, you win. If you draw an exploding kitten, you die. Each player takes turns playing and drawing cards. However, if it takes more than 10 minutes to explain the game to 4 new players, you are doing something wrong. The box does say it takes 2 minutes to learn, which I will say is not entirely accurate. The Goal of the GameĮxploding Kittens is an easy game to play. If you want to play with more people an extra deck of cards can be combined and it can support up to 8 players. It is a card game for 2 to 5 players and takes about 15 minutes per game to play. I for one was quite excited to get the game after coming across it on Amazon and then looking it up to see how it is played. It has been awhile since we have had a review, but this weekend we got a new game, Exploding Kittens! Exploding kittens is like Russian Roulette, except with kittens on cards.
