This game is a highly-strategic, kitty-powered version of Russian Roulette. Players draw cards until someone draws an Exploding Kitten, at which they explode, they are dead, and they are out of game - unless that player has a Defuse card, which can defuse the Kitten using things like laser pointers, belly rubs and catnip sandwiches. All other cards in the deck are used to move, mitigate, or avoid the Exploding Kittens.
Please take note that this is a standalone version and is not compatible with the following Exploding Kittens expansions.
