The remaining Defuse cards are then also put back in the deck. The Exploding Kitten cards are then shuffled back into the deck so that the number of Exploding Kitten cards in the deck is one less than the number of players. The deck is shuffled and each player draws 4 cards and takes a Defuse card. Exploding Kittens is described as a “strategic card game about cats and destruction”.Īll cards are put into a deck, except for the Defuse and Exploding Kitten cards.
