Product Information

Even though all the cards are, obviously, one of the six available colors, being limited to three possibilities gives players an avenue to set expectations and have those expectations not pay off.

It’s not like anyone’s trying to keep anything secret, but I’d like to know how close other players are to scoring. Note that each coloured suit also helpfully has a unique design and symbol to make Mantis non colour dependent). To win the game with the sociopathic underwater inhabitants, you must either steal from your opponents or score enough points that they cannot recover from your blow. Well ok, bigger picture, existentially maybe, but not when it comes to being a fan of Exploding Kittens!br />
This expansion deck includes 15 cards, featuring 8 new types of actions and a Streaking Kitten which allows you to hold an Exploding Kitten in your hand without exploding.

Try to collect matching sets of cards faster than your opponents while simultaneously ducking, dodging, and throwing squishy airborne burritos. To save you from having to carry the board game box all the time, we created a compact card holder To Go for you. And although that does mean more opportunity to brighten up your board game shelves, I guarantee we will only take the deck when we go to the pub or a café. I can see that being frustrating for some players I’ve gamed with in the past, but, more broadly, I think the game is sometimes just going to be luck of the draw, since you’re literally flipping cards hoping for a good result. The custom deck of 105 cards is beautifully illustrated with seven uniquely colored praying mantises doing or eating something silly.Chaos is almost completely the name of the game, here, so if you’re looking for more shouting and more laughs, more players will definitely get you there.

Collect matching cards by stealing them from your opponents, but try not to let them steal yours back! With simple gameplay and layers of subtle sabotage, Mantis is designed for both kids and adults,” explained Matthew Inman, creator of The Oatmeal and co-creator of Exploding Kittens.We found this variation to not be quite as exciting when compared to the normal rules, but sometimes you only have one other person around to play!
