Imploding Kittens

You must buy the main game (Exploding Kittens ordinary or adults- only version) , in order to use this add-on. It is a bit expensive, as is the main game, but bear in mind that it is/ was a 'kickstarter' project, so they do not have the mass production scale that brings down the price. This add-on is suitable for all ages,(i.e. it is not like the Not Safe For Work edition of the original game.) We bought this because the original' Exploding Kittens' game proved so popular with the adults and children among family and friends. It's funny and quite fast moving, which is good if your children get bored. (Suggest you read separate reviews for original game) This expansion set means you can have one more player than before, and adds new cards with different features. It also has a cardboard 'cone of shame' which you may be required to wear,which is funny. We've been happy with this purchase. Please note that this is an independent review and I paid full price for the original game and this addition.

Purchased with Exploding Kittens (NSFW). Definitely a necessity for the original! It adds a different element to the original game and makes it much more enjoyable as the imploding kitten requires more skill to avoid when placed facing upwards! Continually exciting artwork. I played this with my family & friends during the holidays and everyone could not get enough of it. However, some cons is that the card quality is not great for the price that it is. The original plus expansion deck must be played with card sleeves to preserve quality. The cone of shame is a bit gimmicky and wears off quickly - it is also not convenient to carry this around to your friend's house. FYI it is not practical to eat your Christmas dinner while wearing & playing this. Good thing is that the cone is good quality and fairly water/sauce resistant. Overall I would expect the product quality to be a little nicer for the price that it was. It may also be of note that this expansion only allows one extra player on top of the original card game.

Exploding Kittens (base game): Fun and easy to learn. Good strategy can improve your chances of winning, but it's primarily about how the cards fall. So more advanced players can have an edge, but new ones are still in with a good chance of winning. Bear in mind that there are standard and NSFW (Not Safe For Work) decks. The NSFW deck is intentionally risqué and that's presumably the one other reviewers are complaining about. If you're going to play this with young children, don't buy the NSFW deck. Imploding Kittens (first expansion): Adds some more interesting action cards, and the game now becomes about avoiding the face-up Imploding Kitten card instead of (2 players) or as well as (3 or more players) avoiding the Exploding Kitten card(s). Since you can see the Imploding Kitten coming, the game becomes more about forcing an opponent to take the obviously deadly turn, rather than risking drawing an Exploding Kitten blind. The 'cone of shame' thing is pointless, and just adds massively to the size of the packaging. Streaking Kittens (second expansion): Adds a few more action cards, which make the game more interesting again. However, IMO, the 'streaking kitten' card ruins the game, by allowing one player to hold on to an exploding kitten in their hand. This actually led to accusations of cheating the first time we played with the new cards, since we hadn't read the rules thoroughly, and one player knew ('See Into the Future' card) that another had drawn an exploding kitten card and not declared it. The rules for Imploding Kittens say you can add or omit expansion cards as you please, but the ones for Streaking Kittens don't mention this. I'm inclined to play without the Streaking Kitten card in the deck. I feel it spoils the game.

Some great new cards that really improve the game making it more varied, new ways to back stab your opponents. The only thing that let the side down is that the expansion cards are bigger than the original game, only bought a few weeks apart. See picture. Makes it hard to shuffle them together effectively and easy to tell if it's "definitely not an exploding kitty because that card is from the expansion". Minor gripe, the actual game extension is amazing.

This is an awesome addition to our exploding kittens game. It added so much fun to our game. My 9 year old son has always HATED loosing. He was trying so hard to get Dad to loose so that he would have to wear the cone. In the end son lost and joyfully, laughing and making jokes put cone of shame on! 🤯 Never, ever has a game ended this way when he looses. We are almost affraid of him loosing. Could be argued that it should have come with original game...we have both expansion packs and have had original game for about 2 years. We get it out quite regularly. We have spaced out buying expansion packs and each time has refreshed the game. So, slightly down in value for money but is good to refresh a favourite game.

I really like this brush I am very impressed. For £20 it's an absolute bargain. I have long thick hair that's a bit wavy with kinks and generally a mess. This straightens it out perfectly but I don't have to section it off like I do with ghds. It takes me 5 mins to go over my hair. I have also used this on my daughters hair after she went to bed with damp hair and woke up looking a fright, again just 5 mins and it was lovely and sleek. I only have one little gripe with it but nothing major at all. Just that the bristles are a bit scratchy so it's not the nicest feeling on your scalp, however reviews for other similar brushes that have a sort of rubber bobble end on the bristles said that they stick and snag so I guess this is a better option. This brush straightens my hair completely but without that flattened look of the ghds, I am still able to keep some of the volume. Overall I can't complain, and the price is just fantastic.

This pack will transform your game by adding an extra layer of strategical cunning! We found it very easy to learn the rules and started applying them instantly. Very addictive! Tremendous fun, and not just for nerds 🤓

I bought a pack of Exploding Kittens for my husband, who is a huge cat lover, for Christmas. We absolutely loved it! So what it is just a pack of cards? I don't get all the people who are giving a bad review on that basis. Haven't you checked what you were buying? Was more than a pack of cards promised to you? Does anything please you at all? ... Have you even tried the game? We really enjoyed it. We played several times a day. A daily game is now almost a tradition, in this lonely lockdown. I also bought Imploding Kittens to extend our pack. We ended up with an interesting game, more varied. But for just two people, maybe it's a fraction more cards than I'd like playing with, although we can randomly remove a chunk of the deck if we want a shorter game, as per instructions. We both love our kittens and we love the game!

Good addon for the base game, aids gameplay when in larger groups

Honestly nothing special. The only new cards you get are 4x reverse and one imploding kitten. The rest is just more of the old cards.

My 10 yo got the original for Christmas and it instantly became a family favorite. It’s easy enough that everyone incl 7yo can play and the perfect combination of strategi and luck to make it interesting for everyone. This expansion added some awesome new cards and the cone of shame was hilarious for everyone but me, who was the one stuck with it..

Cette extension est géniale! Les nouvelles cartes viennent vraiment compléter le jeu initial (et avec le cône de la honte fourni ce sont des fous rires assurés). Les cartes sont en anglais mais elles ne sont vraiment pas compliquées à comprendre.. Par contre attention le dos des cartes n'est pas le même que le jeu initial en français (donc quand on pioche on sait par avance si ce sera une carte de l'extension ou pas), il faut donc prévoir des protèges cartes opaques d'un côté et transparent de l'autre..

pretty much like the real one
