Exploding Kittens Card Game Pros and Cons

Exploding Kittens Card Game Pros and Cons
Do you think you would like to play a card game about kittens exploding with your kids? Yes, well…maybe, well how about goats? Read on to see if you would.

This is an extremely popular card game and has over 12,000 reviews on Amazon with around 75% five star ratings. Popular probably understates this game’s attraction.

Exploding Kittens is a card game with a pack of 56 card which players draw until someone pulls up the Exploding Kitten. The card then ‘explodes’ and the player is out of the game!

As with similar card games like UNO there are ways to ‘defuse’ your situation by collecting defuse cards to save you.

Players enlist the help of these cards in the form of laser pointers, catnip sandwiches or belly rub cards to distract the kitten card. Just like you would do with your real life kitty!

Monopoly Millionaires Board Game

Monopoly Millionaires Board Game
Family game night will get a little more entertaining when you introduce Monopoly Millionaires.

This is a new twist on the classic board game that most of us grew up playing in our homes. But you'll find that this version is more up to date and has a few changes.

 First, you'll notice that all of the properties are much more expensive than the original version of the game. But just like the original version you'll buy properties, houses, and hotels. But you'll also find a fortune card on each property.

Instead of just one playing piece, you can play with up to three different ones. Your piece gets upgraded as you make money.

As you move around the board, you get the opportunity to purchase properties, but it can also give you more opportunity to change your fortune.
