Exploding Kittens Sides Board Game - A Word-Guessing Challenge of Subtlety and Cooperation, Strategy Game for Kids and Adults, Ages 10+, 2-9 Players, 45 Minute Playtime, Made by Captain Games

Got this because I love trying games that can be played with different sized groups, especially odd numbers. I also like that it is more cooperative, so people who don't normally like to play games don't feel intimidated or overwhelmed at all. The age span is great with this game as well, so it will totally be taken to the next large family gathering. Super love the easy words mixed in, the wide variety of ways to give clues, and the way everyone feels like a winner. It can take a while to play if the group is too big, but it is fun to hear how everyone gets to the same word using very different paths. Overall, super game!

It is a bit challenging to learn at first but very fun once you get going. Feels like a game of brain teasing! We will definitely play it often!

The instructions are fairly easy to read and understand. Normally, I watch the video on to play, but the "Video Rules" QR code on the back of the box didn't really explain the rules.The game itself is straight forward, you are trying to guess the words on cards by giving a clue only using the outermost letters visible in play.We played the two person version and it was fun. The game is definitely more challenging than what I was expecting. Each game takes about 20 minutes to play. Depending on the answers given you will laugh and/or question the other players thought process.Overall, I think the game is fun and worth adding to your game collection.

We loved this game. Played with a few friends and all had a great time. Easy enough to learn and we had lots of fun playing it a bunch of times! A great party/brewery game!
