Exploding Kittens is a highly-strategic, kitty powered version of Russian Roulette.
Players draw cards until somebody draws an Exploding Kitten, at which point they explode and are out of the game.
To avoid exploding, they can defuse the kitten with a laser pointer or catnip sandwich, OR use powerful action cards to move or avoid the Exploding Kitten.
In this edition, you can also use the squishy Cat Burglar figure to steal cards from opponents. But be careful! Being a great burglar also makes you a great target!
