About Exploding Kittens
At Exploding Kittens, Inc., we are pioneering a new era of entertainment, fundamentally reshaping how people connect and play in the physical world. Our journey began with a groundbreaking Kickstarter campaign in 2015, where an audacious goal of $10,000 was shattered in a mere eight minutes, ultimately raising over $8.7 million from 219,000 backers. This overwhelming support solidified our place in crowdfunding history as the most-backed project and catapulted our flagship game, Exploding Kittens, into a global phenomenon. Our innovation lies not just in creating games, but in engineering experiences that foster genuine, hilarious, and memorable person-to-person interactions, moving entertainment away from screens and back to the tabletop. We are more than just a game company; we are architects of fun, dedicated to designing accessible yet strategic games that are simple to learn but offer endless replayability and uproarious moments.
Our creative engine is fueled by the visionary collaboration of former Xbox game designer Elan Lee and Matthew Inman, the celebrated creator of The Oatmeal. This fusion of game design expertise and distinctive, witty art has become our signature, allowing us to build a diverse portfolio of over 30 games, including fan favorites like 'Throw Throw Burrito' and 'Poetry for Neanderthals'. We are constantly pushing the boundaries of tabletop gaming, expanding our universe with innovative mechanics and unexpected themes. Our technological footprint extends into the digital realm with successful mobile applications on iOS, Android, and Nintendo Switch, and even an animated series on Netflix, demonstrating our commitment to bringing our unique brand of humor and engagement to a wider audience. At Exploding Kittens, we are relentlessly innovating to create the next generation of games that bring people together for shared moments of joy and laughter, proving that the future of entertainment can be both technologically savvy and deeply human.
