To not like Exploding Kittens.

[WhiteFire]

Having read Exploding Kittens being repeatedly recommended on MN, I recently purchased it. It is so dull, I'm so bored within a couple of rounds.

So AIBU to find it duller than dull? *

• I'm aware that I am, but I can't be the only one surely.

Yeah I'm not keen, a bit too cool for school and hipsterish for me. However, I love Obama llama and dobble, even if I'm rubbish at them!

I do like a bit of Dobble, never heard of Obama Llama though.

Isn't it age 7+? My son (10) played it with a friend at the weekend and they loved it 🤷‍♀️

It's boring to start with but once you get to the end game it's ace!! We've had some brilliant games down to the wire

Great for my ds when they were 7 and 20. Bearable to play as an adult.

Love Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza.

Sorry that should say 7 and 10, they are 8 and 11 now and they still like it but with the streaking kittens "expansion rip off

I found it dull as shit. Assumed I was missing something

Yeah it’s boring. Rather play plain old Go Fish.

I find its the kind of game you need to play with a lot of people for it to really work. My family love it as an after dinner still sitting round the table drinking wine deciding if we have room for cheese kind of a game.

You need to play it as a grudge match, where the aim is to get -DH- someone specifically to loss, to make it entertaining.

I agree, it's dull!

Dullest thing ever. So hyped up. Load of shit.

I didn't get it either. DH had played it with friends and loved it. Bought it and got us to try when my brother and SIL were staying and none of us enjoyed it except DH sadly.

Yes I hate it too - takes ages to remember the rules if not played for a while then get fed up halfway through. Unstable Unicorns is a similarly annoying game. I prefer Rat-A-Tat-Cat and Sleeping Queens (similar in that they are a smallish box and cards) but my teenagers say they're too old for those now. Actually what I prefer is Scrabble (yes I am old) but they won't play that with me - though will occasionally play Bananagrams or Rummikub.

I also didn't get it. My extended family all think it's the business. I would happily skip out of the room to go and chew on nails if they even mention playing it.

I tried to like it but I just don't! Sushi Go Party is a far better card game.

I agree! Lots of my friends (in different ages and groups) seem to rave over it but I find it boring and really try and opt for a different game if there is another one on offer. Glad other people are of the same opinion! Thought I must be the only one too!

One of my Guides thrashes me at exploding kittens ALL THE TIME WHICH IS VERY ANNOYING INDEED. I rather enjoy it otherwise.

Yep, it's crap! I don't get the hype either.

Definitely overhyped and disappointing. Not cheap either iirc. I much prefer Dobble.

Agreed. Sushi Go is a great game!

I think it's rubbish.

Poker dice or things like pictionary or even (family) cards against humanity or so much more.fun.

are

I love it! But I quite like games that are easy to learn but work best with a bit of strategy. Splendor is my other current fav.

Its anything but dull if you have several people pkaying competitively!

send me all your games you think are dull 😁
