App Review: Exploding Kittens

Exploding Kittens is a card app based on the popular card game with the same name. The game plays similar to the card game with a few card types taken out, it is easy to learn. It is easiest to learn as you play.

The game play is simple and you have one goal: don't explode. There is a predetermined amount of exploding kittens in the deck (one less than the number of players). Each player starts with one defuse card, which they use to save themselves from the exploding kitten. The player can then hide the kitten where they want into the deck. A players turn is completed by either playing an action card or drawing a card (which may include an exploding kitten). Other cards include but are not limited to: shuffle, skip your turn, steal a card, and reverse order of play.

There are 3 game modes: Play With Friends, Play With Strangers, and Play Alone. The first two are online where you either play with up to four friends or matched with strangers. In play alone, you will face a computer with either easy, medium, or hard difficulty.

There are DLC two expansion packs for the app that add more cards in play. Party Expansion Pack and Betrayal Expansion Deck. They both can be purchased for roughly $2.00 each. The base game is available in the Apple iOS App Store and Android's Google Play Store for roughly $2.00.

For a more personal experience, the card game is available in Canada for $25 on Amazon.
