Exploding Kittens Party Pack card game

The Exploding Kittens card game plays a bit like Russian roulette. Each player draws from a deck of cards, one by one. There are enough “exploding kitten” cards in the mix to end everyone but the winner’s game. But there are far more safe cards in the deck — cards that can be played at the right time to avoid cat-aided doom.

Up to 10 people can play at once. Amazon reviewers rate the game 4.7 stars.
