Players take turns drawing cards until someone draws an exploding kitten and loses the game.
The Kickstarter campaign has quite aptly exploded, managing to rack up over $1m in pledges in just 24 hours and it’s still climbing, currently sitting at a hefty 1.5 million.Įxploding Kittens is a highly strategic kitty-powered version of Russian Roulette. The card game (thought up by the trio of Elan Lee, Shane Small and Matthew Inman) features Inman’s instantly recognisable art seen on the phenomenally popular website The Oatmeal.
Exploding Kittens is a prime example of what happens when you combine three things the internet loves- namely cats, The Oatmeal and crowdfunding.
