Everything You Need to Know About Streaking Kittens Game Rules

Hi there! So, you’re curious about the Streaking Kittens Game, huh? Well, you’ve come to the right place. Here, I’ll break down all the rules for you. It’s gonna be fun!

What’s the Deal with Streaking Kittens?

So, let me start by explaining what this game is all about. Streaking Kittens is an expansion pack for the Exploding Kittens card game. It adds a whole new level of excitement and unpredictability to the game.

Getting Started

Alright, let’s dive into the rules. First things first, you’ll need the original Exploding Kittens game to play with the Streaking Kittens expansion. Make sure you have both decks handy before you start.

Now, shuffle the Streaking Kittens expansion deck and randomly remove one card per player. These cards are the Streaking Kittens, and they’re oh-so special.

Got your Streaking Kitten cards sorted? Great! Now, reshuffle the rest of the deck and combine it with the original Exploding Kittens deck.

Time for Some Action

Ready to get this party started? Excellent! Each player should start the game with one Defuse card and four other cards drawn from the deck. Keep those cards hidden from your nosy opponents, okay?

Alright, now it’s time to play! The rules of the game pretty much follow the original Exploding Kittens rules, with one important twist. If you draw a Streaking Kitten card, you’re in for a surprise!

Streaking Kittens Unveiled

So, what happens when you draw a Streaking Kitten card? Well, it’s simple. You’re now required to play your Streaking Kitten card IMMEDIATELY! No ifs, ands, or buts.

When you play your Streaking Kitten card, you have two choices. You can either put it back into the deck facedown OR you can replace an Exploding Kitten card with it. The choice is yours!

But be warned, my friend. If you decide to put your Streaking Kitten back into the deck, there’s a chance that someone else might draw it later and then, well, things could get a little hairy. It’s a risky move, but it might just pay off!

Watch Out for the Exploding Kittens

Oh, and don’t forget about those Exploding Kittens! They’re pretty nasty little creatures. If you draw one, BOOM! You’re out of the game, unless you have a Defuse card to save the day. Use those Defuse cards wisely, my friend!

Last Player Standing Wins

Keep playing, avoiding those Exploding Kittens, until only one player is left standing. That player is declared the ultimate winner of the game, the master of the Streaking Kittens!

Well, that’s about it! You now have all the knowledge you need to dive headfirst into the world of Streaking Kittens. So gather your friends, shuffle those decks, and get ready for a wild and unpredictable card game adventure!

1. So, start by taking out the Exploding Kittens (4) and Defuse Cards (6) from your trusty deck of Exploding Kittens – just like you always do.

First, I’ll remove 1 Exploding Kitten card from the Streaking Kittens expansion deck.

Next, I’ll take the remaining 14 cards from the Streaking Kittens expansion and mix them in with the rest of the cards from the main deck. Then, I’ll give the deck a good shuffle.

Let’s start by dealing 7 cards face down to each player.

So here’s what we’re going to do: each of us gets 8 cards. But, listen up, we gotta keep our hands a secret. That’s right, no peeking!

First, let’s make sure we have enough Exploding Kittens for everyone playing. We’ll need one more than normal because of the Streaking Kitten Card, which lets you hold an Exploding Kitten without it exploding!

Now, let’s talk about the Imploding Kittens expansion deck.

If we’re playing with the Imploding Kittens expansion, we need to add the Imploding Kitten card to the deck. We also need to add enough Exploding Kittens so that the total number of Kittens (Imploding and Exploding) matches the number of players.

First, I want to iterate that it’s essential for you to follow these instructions precisely to ensure a smooth gaming experience. So let’s get into it and talk about the key steps you need to take when removing or adding cards to your Exploding Kittens game.

Removing Cards

To begin, make sure you remove any extra Exploding Kittens cards from the game. These cards have the potential to throw a wrench in your plans, so it’s best to get rid of them. Trust me, you don’t want one of those lurking in your deck!

Next, carefully insert any extra Defuse Cards back into the deck. These cards are your lifeline, so having a few extras on hand can be a game-changer. Take your time and make sure they are evenly dispersed throughout the deck to keep things fair.

Two or Three Players

If you’re playing with just two or three players, the rules change slightly. You’ll want to put only two of the extra Defuse Cards back into the deck, removing the remaining Defuse Cards from the game. This adjustment ensures that the game remains balanced and fair for everyone involved.

Alright, let’s get this card game started! First things first, you need to shuffle the deck and place it face down in the middle of the table. This pile of cards is called the Draw Pile.

Here’s a Faster Game Variant

Want to speed things up? Before you mix in any Kittens, take out around one third of the cards in the deck randomly. So you’ll be playing with about two thirds of the original deck, but you won’t know which cards are missing.

After that, go ahead and shuffle in the right number of Exploding Kittens into the Draw Pile. Now you’re ready to start the game!

Just a heads up: When playing with the Streaking Kittens expansion, make sure you use the same number of Exploding Kittens as there are players!

Now, let’s talk about the cards.

There’s one special card called the Streaking Kitten card.

When you have this card in your hand, you have a sneaky advantage. You can secretly hold 1 Exploding Kitten without it blowing up on you. Pretty handy, right?

But wait, there’s more!

If I accidentally let go of the Streaking Kitten, the Exploding Kitten it was hiding will explode. If someone steals or receives an Exploding Kitten from my hand, they will also explode unless they defuse it. I better watch out!

If I make a move that forces me to play an Exploding Kitten from my hand into the Discard Pile, I’m in trouble. I’ll explode unless I defuse it in time. Yikes!

Listen up! I can’t use the Streaking Kittens or the Exploding Kittens with the 5 Card Special Combo. That means I can’t include them in my hand of 5 cards, and I can’t take them out of the Discard Pile. Why? Because it messes up the game, and we don’t want that. The game loves us – don’t ruin the bond!

By the way, if we’re playing with the Imploding Kittens expansion deck, the Streaking Kitten doesn’t mess with the Imploding Kitten. It’s business as usual for them. Phew!

Exploding Kitten (1 Card)

I got an extra Exploding Kitten Card just for the Streaking Kitten.

Super Skip (1 Card)

You can end your turn without drawing a card. If you have to take more turns, you can end them all at once. This is pretty helpful when you’ve been attacked.

See the Future (5x) (1 Card)

I have this special power that lets me secretly look at the top 5 cards from the Draw Pile. I can even put them back exactly as I found them. But shhh, don’t tell the other players what the cards are!

Alter the Future (5x) (1 Card)

Hey there! Let me show you how to play Streaking Kittens. It’s super fun! Just follow these simple steps:

Rearrange the Top 5 Cards

First, take a look at the top 5 cards from the Draw Pile. You can rearrange them in any order you want. The best part? No one else gets to see them!

Swap the Top and Bottom Cards

Next, without peeking at the cards, swap the top and bottom cards of the Draw Pile. Easy peasy!

Insert Cards into the Draw Pile

Now, it’s time for the Garbage Collection. Everyone, including you, needs to choose one card from their hand and secretly put it into the Draw Pile. Once everyone has done this, shuffle the entire Draw Pile. Sneaky, huh?

Ready for a Catomic Bomb?

Lastly, let’s go nuclear with the Catomic Bomb! This powerful card allows you to skip all your actions. It’s a total game-changer!

That’s all there is to it! Now you’re ready to have a blast playing Streaking Kittens. Enjoy!

In order to start the game, let’s first remove all the Exploding Kittens from the Draw Pile and place them where everyone can see. Then, we need to shuffle the Draw Pile and put the Exploding Kittens back on top, face-down.

Once that’s done, it’s important to know that you have the option to end your turn without drawing a card.

Imploding Kittens

If you’re playing with the Imploding Kittens expansion deck, there’s no need to remove the Imploding Kitten when taking out the Exploding Kittens.

Mark (3 Cards)

Now, let’s talk about the Mark cards. To start, choose another player as your target. Randomly pick one of their cards and ‘mark’ it by putting it back in their hand with the face exposed to the other players. The card is still a part of their hand, and they can look at it, but it must stay marked until it’s either played or stolen.

If a marked card is stolen, it loses its mark.

Curse of the Cat Butt (2 Cards)

Alright, here’s a fun one! I want you to choose someone to be the target. We’ll call them the blind player. Now, this blind player has to do something interesting. They need to turn all of their cards face down on the table and mix them up. They’re not allowed to peek at a single card until they manage to draw one from the Draw Pile without making it explode!

Now, it’s important to know that on the blind player’s turn, if they decide to play any cards, they have to do it blindly. They’ll randomly pick a card from their face-down pile and play it on the Discard Pile for everyone to see. If the card is playable, it works just like a regular play. Pretty exciting, right?

Butt..

The Mysterious Blind Exploding Kitten

Hey there! So, if I happen to draw an Exploding Kitten (and I don’t have a sneaky Streaking Kitten), that doesn’t count as me successfully drawing a card. Now, here’s where it gets interesting – I have to play my cards blindly until I manage to play a Defuse card.

Here’s the catch – any non-Defuse cards that I play while blind are lost forever, without any effect. But fear not! If I successfully defuse the Exploding Kitten, I can return to regular, non-blind play.

But wait, there’s more! If I accidentally play an Exploding Kitten while blind, boom! I explode immediately. To avoid that unfortunate fate, I must blindly defuse the Exploding Kitten or end up losing the game.

Now, picture this: I’m already trying to defuse an Exploding Kitten when, oh no, I play another Exploding Kitten! Can you believe it? Well, in that case, I’m in for a bit of a challenge. I have to defuse each of them, one by one, before I can continue playing.

A Sneak Peek with Blind Favor

So, here’s an interesting twist – if I decide to play a Favor Card while blind, I get a special treat. I can take a quick peek at the card I receive before I carefully set it face down and shuffle it into my hand on the table. A little advantage in this mysterious blind game!

The Veiled Mark

If you or an opponent marks you while you can’t see, the marked card has to stay facing the other way from the rest of your hand until you use it or someone takes it.

Blind Three of a Kind

If an opponent plays a “Three of a Kind” on you while you can’t see, you need to find the asked-for card (if you have it) and give it to them. Then, you put your cards back on the table without looking and mix them up again.

Blind Garbage Collection

If Garbage Collection is played while you can’t see, you have to choose a card to give up without looking at your hand.

After you have made your choice, you can secretly look at the card (just in case you’ve accidentally given away a Streaking Kitten and you’re left with an Exploding Kitten in your hand – you can try to defuse it).
