Get ready for a cat-themed, strategic variation of Russian Roulette...
Players draw cards trying to move or avoid Exploding Kittens. If someone draws an Exploding Kitten, they explode and are out of the game - unless that player has a Defuse Card, which can neutralize the Kitten using things like laser pointers and sandwich treats!

Pros: My kids (aged 11) find it an incredibly funny game.
Cons: If you have even a slight degree of presbyopia, you can't read the small print - you need glasses.
Russian roulette with cards. So simple that even 5-year-olds can play. Unfortunately, for large groups, you need the expansions or variations that are not yet available in Greek.
Fun and fast card game, in which both luck and strategy play a role.
The cards are of good quality with beautiful and funny illustrations. It would be good, of course, to protect them with sleeves, so that they can last longer.
The luck factor is important, as the initial dealing, as well as the cards drawn by a player, are significant, but being able to "read" opponents and think strategically also play an equally crucial role.
It is an ideal party game, but also suitable for young children who may need a little help if they are not yet able to read. However, it is not difficult for them to learn the cards and not need to read the text.
The only negative is that the price is a bit high for a card game.
We played it at a friend's house for about 1 - 1.5 hours and I was amazed. It's a very clever game, especially if you are 4-5 people, just don't even think about it, buy it for 5 euros each. It's the best!
It breaks the boredom and competition of Monopoly, which takes over half an hour to determine a winner. There is competition but also cooperation, as the "NO" cards are used like bombs in Tichu, you can play them whenever you want, even if it's not your turn.
The cards are of good quality, but if you eat some chips or there are drinks around, I would recommend getting card sleeves for the cards for an extra 2 euros. The price of the game is relatively high for what it offers, and it's a shame for the cards to get damaged quickly with just a little water spilled on the table.
Emphasis has been placed on the visual aspect, and each card is unique with its own cat character. Each card is like a meme on its own.
For groups of 2 people, it's equally fun but you get bored more easily. We play a maximum of 3 rounds when I play with a second person, and then usually switch to another board game if there is still interest.
The kids (11 and 8 years old) loved it! The only negative thing I can say is that the cards could be a little bigger to make the texts more readable. The instructions and the cards are in Greek
The game is amazing although expensive for what it offers (it's just a card game).
Don't try to play it to win, play it to have fun and you will have a great time. As others have written, it is more enjoyable with more than two players
The game is fun for something quick and simple. It can be played with two people, but it is much more interesting with three or more. I think without expansions, you get bored relatively quickly. However, it is not at all bad. You learn it easily, play it quickly, and have a good laugh. For something simple and fast, it is worth it
It is very fun, it has very nice rules that lead to various twists, it is suspenseful, and each game lasts a short time, so you can play it 3-4 times. I would recommend it, although it seemed expensive for a card game. Also, if you are too lazy to read the small instructions, there is a 5-minute video on YouTube by Kaissa that explains it
It's a lot of fun with twists and turns without having difficult rules. Kids have loved it and it's one of the few that you don't get bored playing with them! I recommend it as a gift for all ages!
It is a very entertaining game, I was impressed that the game cards are made of plastic and not paper, so they will withstand more hours of gameplay. The Greek version is worth its money because the instructions are also in Greek.
A simple, easy tabletop game with cards. It passes the time pleasantly, especially for younger children. However, it can be played by any age. It is very likely that other versions of the same game are worth more.
Fast, disruptive, and fun. The rules are learned in two minutes as stated in the game. With your cards, you protect yourself but also try to make it difficult for your opponents until everyone explodes except the winner
Relatively expensive (like all of Kaissa's products), considering that they are just cards.
Otherwise, it is a very entertaining game that keeps you on the edge until the end. The winner of the game can literally change at the last moment. There is also a high degree of interaction with the other players.
Finally, I was somewhat disappointed with the Greek translation of the game. It is correct, but they used more serious terms than the original, for example, "Nope" became "Όχι" instead of "Ούτε καν," which would have been closer to the context of the English version.
A game that you learn in 2 minutes. Essentially, it is a Russian Roulette with cards where we do everything we can to avoid explosive kittens and be the last survivors.
The cards are funny and the game lasts 10-15 minutes. Perfect for groups who want to play something funny and suspenseful that doesn't require much thinking (although there are moments where a good strategy can make you win).
Card game, very simple rules, it's fun and has a lot of "take that" element of interaction between players. Light filler game, small in size, easily accompanies you on your travels. You draw cards until you draw the exploding kitten, when that happens you play a defuse card. If you don't have one, you lose, but you can still see the deck that you draw from in order to set it up for someone else to draw, but someone else can shuffle the deck and the strategy can go out the window, but someone can deny them with a nope, generally it becomes a bit chaotic and it's quite flexible in terms of options. I recommend it!
