HOW IT WORKS

YOU PUT THE CARDS ON THE TABLE AND TAKE TURNS DRAWING FROM THEM.

IF YOU DRAW AN EXPLODING KITTEN CARD, YOU EXPLODE. WHEN YOU EXPLODE, YOU DIE AND YOU'RE OUT OF THE GAME.

UNLESS!

YOU PLAY A DEFUSE CARD, WHICH WILL STOP THE KITTEN FROM EXPLODING USING THINGS LIKE LASER POINTERS, KITTEN YOGA,AND CATNIP SANDWICHES.

OR

PLAY VARIOUS CARDS TO SKIP YOUR TURN, ATTACK OTHER PLAYERS, PEEK AT THE DECK, OR SECRETLY RELOCATE AN EXPLODING KITTEN CARD.

RELOCATING AN EXPLODING KITTEN TO A NEW LOCATION IN THE DECK LETS YOU FORM COMPLEX, FUN, AND CRUEL STRATEGIES AGAINST OTHER PLAYERS.

ALSO

YOU CAN PLAY CAT CARDS, WHICH ARE DIFFERENT FROM KITTEN CARDS. CAT CARDS ACTIVATE SPECIAL POWERS.
