New rules. New Kittens. New mayhem. This version of Exploding Kittens features new cards and gameplay based on the Netflix animated series Exploding Kittens, premiering near the end of 2023. It's still the highly-strategic kitty powered version of Russian Roulette you know and love with new Armageddon Cards which set up an epic battle of Good vs. Evil. Outsmart your opponent. Try not to explode. The last player left alive wins. —description from the publisher
