Exploding KittensThat Escalated Quickly 2-8 Players - Ages 10+ - 15 Minutes to Play - Hilarious Cooperative Card Game - Party Game, Family Game Night, Adult and Teen Card Game

This is my new favorite game! It’s not difficult to play and it makes me laugh! We’ve been playing it with 4 people and it works very well. The more people who play, the more challenging it would be to “win”. But winning in my opinion isn’t that important. It’s more about how well we did, and laughing at the answers. The questions are very fun and answers can be simple or complex, and do not need to be excessively creative. Sometimes the simplest answers get the most laughs. We’ve had turns where we have numbers that are all one away from each other, and it’s so satisfying to collectively as a group get them in the correct order. The 1’s and 10’s are the easiest to recognize because they are so over the top. It’s the numbers in the middle that are a little more tricky. Great family or party game.

Such a fun party game! Easy to learn how to play!

This game is a lot of fun to play. I recently purchased it and played with a group of friends because I thought this game would be a nice addition to my collection. I will admit however it does take a bit to read over the rules and get going. Or maybe that was just me and my friends where we had to read over the rules a couple times to make sure we were playing it right. So that’s the only downside is it was a bit more complicated than I had expected. That being said however, once we got going and the game picked up, we started to really enjoy it. I like getting to get creative with the different scenarios and how they are either really helpful or detrimental to the situation based on the random number you draw from 1-10. The number 1 is typically for what we would be most helpful in the situation and 10 being least helpful and you make up what happens based on the number. So I enjoyed just riffing off me and my friends scenarios based on the prompt cards and then our series of numbers.I would recommend this game for any avid board game lovers but would advise brushing up on the rules and giving them a good read before playing so that way you can start without a lot of stopping to read back over the rules.

I bought this game on a whim, having no idea how much fun it would be. It's become a new family favorite! There are so many cards and scenarios, and many of them make people say absolutely hilarious things. We play with 6 people, but more would be even better. The low and high numbers are easy, but 3-8 can be pretty hard to get in the right order. We don't even pay attention to how many cards we go through in a game, we just play until we get sick of it (which is usually an hour or more). I would highly recommend!

Got 4 of us together last week to play this. All adults, a couple pushing close to 70. We all loved it. This is the type of game where everyone says, "Lets play it again". And then again and again and again. Not hard to understand. If you show a six or seven year old how to play they'll get the hang of it.

I love this concept, and the fact that you can play it with larger groups up to 10 and also in just pairs with modifying the rules (see below). The quality of the gameplay, however, is dependent on the cleverness of players, so choose who you play this game with wisely. The categories are clever. I think some of the negative reviews given to this game is more due to those playing it, and not on the game itself. For example:1. Some of the categories are reverse-scored, in that sometimes a 1 can be "least disappointing..." and other times a 1 can be "most likely to..." So you just have to pay close attention to the prompts before playing a round so that everybody is on the same page. That's not really the fault of the game design.2. Many have criticized that it is hard to keep track of who said what. To reduce this, we play by having everybody say their clue, then go around one more time to say their clue again. The person guessing then starts with who s/he thinks is lowest, asks that person for their card, then reveals the card number face-up. If correct, s/he goes to the next highest number, etc. That way you know immediately what that person's number was.I have played this around a campfire with one or two other people, when we choose a category, get a number, then just try to guess each other's numbers.In all, this game is a lot of fun if played with the "right" people. We often continue playing even after we get three cards either right or wrong.

I really liked this game, I used to play a version of it on long car rides with my family. It was easy to understand and the directions were quick and concise. However this is not a game I would build a whole game night on. We played about 5 rounds, the rounds go by really fast and then we switched into more complex, time consuming games. If you’re wanting to play something fun, quick and easy this game is for you. If you want to have a game night that lasts for hours, I would probably look elsewhere.

Such a fun game!!
