In my house, we made a house rule that the nope card can stop defuse cards to make things much more chaotic. I remember playing exploding kittens with my mom, sisters, and aunt, and my aunt had gotten an exploding kitten card and tried to defuse, but i a bunch of nopes, so me and my aunt had a nope battle noping one another's nope cards until I out noped her, resulting in her getting out due to a undefused exploding kitten card

You’ve got a great collection going on! Haha, you’re definitely right on the old cards with new skins!

@@gameswithdenverjames You take the card without any consequence. Now, in any moment you can throw it. If any player has the other Barking Kitten, it explodes that one and acts like a normal exploding kitten. If not, you put your card in front and probably wait for the others to kill you with the other. BUT, If you pick both of them you can use it as a throwable exploding kitten to whoever you want. You can search the spanish instructions and you will find it.

At the end of the game when the draw pile is zero and you only have streaking kitten and exploding dont you do if you dont have any playable cards
@gameswithdenverjames 12 күн бұрын
That’s a great question! The Streaking Kitten requires you to add one extra Exploding Kitten card to the deck prior to starting the game. This insures that there will be enough Exploding Kittens to eliminate all but one player, even with the Streaking Kitten. I think the Streaking Kitten expansion might even come with an additional Exploding Kitten. Take care and hopefully this helps!

If I'm playing the megamix, i.e. a super deck of all expansions, can the GodCat card act as a Streaking kitten card?
@gameswithdenverjames 19 күн бұрын
That’s a great question! The Godcat card can become any “ playable“ card in the deck, meaning that it can only become a card that’s able to be discarded and played. That said, it wouldn’t be able to become the Streaking Kitten card, since it’s activated in the hand and not in the discard pile. Take care and hopefully this helps!

Can a godcat card be played as a clone on top of a nope?
@gameswithdenverjames 2 ай бұрын
That’s a great question! Technically I can’t find anything that says you can’t. That said, I have a few thoughts. The Nope card is a “NOW” action card that can be played at anytime, regardless of whose turn it is. However, a Clone card can only be played on your turn. Would there be a reason to Clone a Nope card on your turn? If someone were to try to steal the Godcat card from you, you wouldn’t be able to Clone the Nope card in the discard pile, because it’s not your turn. The Godcat card is without a doubt one of the more complicated cards in Exploding Kittens. Take care and hopefully this helps!
@jardex2275 2 ай бұрын
@@gameswithdenverjames I'd say in general that God Cat is limited to its own deck and that GvE is a standalone game, unless the box contains an ad for expansions. That's probably the simplest way to play it, unless you want to explain every card in the deck before the game starts.
