No kittens were harmed in the making of this game.
The card game is the brainchild of Elan Lee (Xbox, ARGs), Matthew Inman (The Oatmeal) and Shane Small (Xbox, Marvel).
The Kickstarter site describes Exploding Kittens as "a highly strategic kitty-powered version of Russian Roulette."
The site goes on to explain, “Players take turns drawing cards until someone draws an exploding kitten and loses the game.”
Then, the vault doors swung open.
In the first hour, $100,000 was in the bank with more than $1.9 million gathered at last count.
The "highly strategic kitty-powered version of Russian Roulette" has the promising potential to become the next "Cards Against Humanity," WDBO reports.
Don't worry, there are no real feline felonies here. Live cats are not part of the game but the developers point out things “get more and more intense with each card you draw because fewer cards left in the deck means a greater chance of drawing the kitten and exploding in a fiery ball of feline hyperbole.”
